 Fixed: #61798 Not possible to assign author to unowned post in the primary
 edit form

 We have checked the following issue
 - When the post is untrash (restored from trash), it does not check
 whether the authors still exist or not... So in that case, we can check
 first "if author user no exists, then assign the current user as the
 author of that post"

 By doing this, It will assign the current user as an author to that
 restored post - only if the author is not present.
