#65331: PHP-only block - postId, context and REST

--------------------------+-----------------------------
 If a PHP only block is registered with

   'uses_context' => [ 'postId' ],

 the context with the postID is delivered only on direct calls to the
 renderer (in the third argument to the render callback) during the initial
 rendering as the editor loads, but not when the renderer is invoked by the
 editor through the REST interface.

 This seems inconsistent, and makes PHP only blocks less useful, as, in
 most cases, they cannot access the post being edited.

 This is only an issued in the editor. The PHP-only blocks work as expected
 on the public side.
