This is a follow-up to #54578.
In #54578, the Live Preview button was removed from a couple of places for
block themes since the site editor preview was not working when previewing
from classic themes. It was decided to remove the Live Preview button from
block themes until it was implemented in Gutenberg
(https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/37201) to enable the site
editor for non-active block themes. That feature has been implemented, and
now Live Preview works for block themes. We should show the Live Preview
button for block themes again.
Steps:
1. Install a block theme like TwentyTwentyFive
2. Go to Appearance -> Themes
3. Click on the TwentyTwentyFive theme
4. There is only the Active button instead of having Live Preview and
Active
1. Upload a block theme like TwentyTwentyFive
2. After the theme is uploaded, there is no Live Preview button
