#64958: Copy React vendor scripts from Gutenberg, update version number

------------------------------+-----------------------------
Gutenberg started building its own bundles for the `react`, `react-dom`
and `react-jsx-runtime` vendor scripts. Previously we've been copying
React's own UMD bundles shipped as part of their NPM packages, but React
19 is going to remove these UMD bundles, and we are preparing for the
migration by abandoning the UMD bundles in advance.
Instead of copying the UMD files, we'll copy them from the Gutenberg
build.
We'll also update the version strings of the packages by appending a `-wp`
suffix, so that we can differentiate them from previous versions. Even
though it's still the same React 18.3.1, the build method has changed.
