	 * Registers a block pattern.

	 * @since 5.5.0

	 * @param array  $pattern_properties {
	 *     List of properties for the block pattern.
	 *
	 *     @type string $title         Required. A human-readable title for the pattern.
	 *     @type string $content       Required. Block HTML markup for the pattern.
	 *     @type string $description   Optional. Visually hidden text used to describe the pattern in the
	 *                                 inserter. A description is optional, but is strongly
	 *                                 encouraged when the title does not fully describe what the
	 *                                 pattern does. The description will help users discover the
	 *                                 pattern while searching.
	 *     @type int    $viewportWidth Optional. The intended width of the pattern to allow for a scaled
	 *                                 preview within the pattern inserter.
	 *     @type array  $categories    Optional. A list of registered pattern categories used to group block
	 *                                 patterns. Block patterns can be shown on multiple categories.
	 *                                 A category must be registered separately in order to be used
	 *                                 here.
	 *     @type array  $blockTypes    Optional. A list of block names including namespace that could use
	 *                                 the block pattern in certain contexts (placeholder, transforms).
	 *                                 The block pattern is available in the block editor inserter
	 *                                 regardless of this list of block names.
	 *                                 Certain blocks support further specificity besides the block name
	 *                                 (e.g. for `core/template-part` you can specify areas
	 *                                 like `core/template-part/header` or `core/template-part/footer`).
	 *     @type array  $keywords      Optional. A list of aliases or keywords that help users discover the
	 *                                 pattern while searching.
	 * }
	 * @return bool True if the pattern was registered with success and false otherwise.
