Soft-Enter (Shift+Enter) creates two <br> elements in Gutenberg visual editor

[subrataemfluence]

While using soft-enter I expect a single <br> element to get inserted between two lines but it creates two of it.

Here is the HTML output:

<p>&lt;?php<br><br>echo 'Hello WordPress...';<br><br>?></p>

Also <br> should appear as <br />.

This was fixed in Gutenberg 5.3 (GB13850), which was released in WordPress 5.2.
