    Backwards Incompatible Changes
    • Major refactor of all field-related blocks.
    • The names of many field blocks have changed.
    • Use getDisallowedBlocks() in favor of removed getBlacklist() in block-visibility/check.
    • Blocks restricted to specific posts have had the post object stored on the block attribute reduced to include only the minimum required properties.
    • The Search, SearchPost, and SearchUser components have had major changes to make them more extendable.
    • Don’t render InspectorControls since the block doesn’t have any actual settings.
