#63608: Hooked blocks not inserted

--------------------------+-----------------------------
Hooked blocks (whether registered via block.json or the hooked_block_types
filter) are registered correctly, but are not inserted.
To reproduce:
- Create a new block plugin using `npx @wordpress/create-block copyright-
date-block --template @wordpress/create-block-tutorial-template`
- Edit the block.json (copyright-date-block/src/block.json) and add the
following:
`"blockHooks": {"core/post-author": "after"},`
- Build the plugin using `npm run build`
- Log into WordPress and activate the Copyright Date Block plugin
- Create a new post or page, insert the "Author" block into the content
and save the post
At this point, the copyright date block should have been automatically
added after the author block, however that doesn't happen.
The post content in the database will look something like this:
{{{
<!-- wp:post-author {"metadata":{"ignoredHookedBlocks":["create-block
/copyright-date-block"]}} /-->
}}}
ie, the ignoredHookedBlocks metadata has been added, but the actual block
has not.
