Summary
This PR fixes a broken link in the REST API FAQ page that currently points to a non-existent support forums tag page returning a 404.
Problem
The following link is broken:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/rest-api/
This results in users being unable to access relevant REST API discussions in the WordPress support forums.
Solution
Replace the broken tag link with a valid WordPress support forums search link:
https://wordpress.org/support/search/rest%20api/
This ensures users can easily find relevant REST API discussions and support topics.
Affected page

Testing

• loads successfully
• displays relevant REST API discussions
• does not return 404
This is a documentation-only change and does not affect functionality.
