Message:

Editor: Update the default writing prompt to match the block editor.

Recently merged, ​https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/29611, changed the default writing prompt text. WordPress core offers the write_your_story filter with a default value using the same text. This change updates the default text to match the recent change in the block editor.

Props Joen, SergeyBiryukov.
Fixes #52948.
