Description

Recently the classic widgets plugin stopped working. This might be related to the merge of the widget screen code to WordPress core (https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/1284), so raising this issue here.

Steps to reproduce:

Install and enable the Classic Widgets plugin
Navigate to the Widgets screen

Expected
The classic widget screen should be shown.

Actual
The block based widget screen is shown.

It looks like Classic Widgets uses wp_use_widgets_block_editor instead of use_widgets_block_editor. I'll update the filter name in core to be wp_use_widgets_block_editor since that matches the function name as well.
