 * Include wp-hooks library from #21170
 * Remove PHP side back compat hook handling for
 `dashboard_recent_drafts_query_args`
 * Add new JavaScript filter for `dashboard_recent_drafts_fetch_args`
 * Don't refocus title after new draft creation, as per

 With this change, instead of supporting the previous PHP filter, we
 provide a new way to filter the query used for the list view. Developers
 who previously filtered the query used for the post list with
 `dashboard_recent_drafts_query_args` must now use the JavaScript filter
 `dashboard_recent_drafts_fetch_args` to achieve the same results.

 For the earlier example PHP filter:

 {{{
 add_filter(
         'dashboard_recent_drafts_query_args',
         function( $query_args ) {
                 $query_args['posts_per_page'] = 10;
                 return $query_args;
         }
 );
 }}}

 Becomes this in JavaScript:
 {{{
 wp.hooks.addFilter(
         'dashboard_recent_drafts_fetch_args',
         function( $args ) {
                 $args['per_page'] = 10;
                 return $args;
         }
 );
 }}}

 I itried to keep the filter naming similar, looking at it now though I'm
 tempted to change the filter to camel case as in
 `dashboardRecentDraftsFetchArgs` which also makes it clearer this is a JS
 filter by the name alone.
