 When `should_load_separate_core_block_assets` is true, block-library
 stylesheets for each block are enqueued separately, so they only get
 loaded if the block is on the page.

 Global styles are enqueued later on, and any block-specific global styles
 are appended to the above block stylesheets, so they end up sitting above
 base global styles in the CSS cascade.

 Base global styles should instead be loaded before block styles (or at
 least before global block styles, so they are applied in the correct
 order.

 Having the correct style loading order in place is essential to reduce the
 specificity of block global styles, in progress in
 https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/57841. This in turn will allow
 section styles: https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/57537 to be
 generated with sustainable levels of specificity.
