Subject: [PATCH] Embeds: Correct error handling in
 `_oembed_rest_pre_serve_request()`.

Since the function is supposed to output a string and only return a boolean value, this commit ensures that an error message is properly displayed, bringing consistency with a similar fragment a few lines above.

Follow-up to [35436].

Props abcd95, oglekler, SergeyBiryukov.
Fixes #63652.
