 Widgets: Warn when `wp-editor` script or `wp-edit-post` style is enqueued
 in widgets editor

 It is common that plugins erroneously have `wp-editor` or `wp-edit-post`
 as a
 dependency in a script that is loaded in the new widgets editor. This is a
 smell
 since both `@wordpress/editor` and `@wordpress/edit-post` assume the
 existence
 of a global "post" object which the widgets editor does not have.

 [51387] fixes the user-facing errors typically caused by this mistake, but
 we
 can go a step further and warn developers about this by calling
 `_doing_it_wrong()` when we detect that the `wp-editor` script or `wp-
 edit-post`
 style is enqueued alongside `wp-edit-widgets` or `wp-customize-widgets`.

 Props zieladam, spacedmonkey, TimothyBlynJacobs, andraganescu, dlh,
 noisysocks.
 Merges [51388] to the 5.8 branch.
 Fixes #53569. See #53437.
