Inline Block Edit

No security coverage Maintenance fixes only

This module allows editors to edit inline blocks directly from the front end using Layout Builder, restoring functionality removed in recent Drupal versions. It bypasses the creation of orphaned revisions, ensuring changes made to inline blocks are immediately visible in their host layouts.

Lets editors open a Layout Builder inline block from the front end, which Drupal 11.3 closed off, without creating revisions the host layout cannot see.

Since Drupal 11.3, it is no longer possible to edit inline blocks created in Layout Builder directly from the front-end using the contextual Edit menu. Inline blocks reference the block and revision ID, creating a new revision of an inline block outside of layout builder creates an orphaned revision and changes do not show up in the host entity (reference).

Enabling this module suppresses the "New revision" section on block content edit forms and reverses the restriction on block content edit and update routes. Optionally, there is a configuration form in Content authoring to allow deleting inline blocks (not recommended).

Editing a block in place means every host revision pointing at that
`block_revision_id` renders the new content. Revision history stops being
faithful for inline block text.

Layout Builder's own revisioning is untouched. `InlineBlock::saveBlockContent()`
still creates a block revision in step with the host entity, so edits made
inside Layout Builder version normally.

On Drupal 10.6 and earlier the route requirement does not exist, so the route
subscriber is a no-op there and only the revision suppression applies.
