Message:

Build: Improve Gutenberg integration workflow.

This changeset improves the Gutenberg build integration to simplify the developer workflow and reinstore a flow similar to how package dependencies worked before the Gutenberg checkout-and-build approach was introduced.

Key improvements:

• Automatic rebuild on ref change: Adds a new gutenberg:sync script that stores a hash of the built ref in .gutenberg-hash and only rebuilds when the ref changes.
• Full integration on npm install: Running npm install now produces a fully working development environment with Gutenberg assets in src/.
• Clean Gutenberg checkout: Restores Gutenberg's package.json after the build completes.
• Stops copying .js.map files to wp-includes/js/dist since they reference non-existent paths.
• Remove package.json files from the build folder.
• Avoid closures and use prefixed functions.
• Updates build checks to use jquery.js instead of edit-post.js as the build indicator.

Fixes #64393.
