Editor: Fix bumped specificity for layout styles in non-iframed editor.
Fixes a regression introduced in [58241] which inadvertently bumped the specificity in a non-iframed editor for `.editor-styles-wrapper .is-layout-flow > *` from (0,1,0) to (0,2,0). This fix restores theme.json spacing rules taking precedence over the implicit spacing rules in a non-iframed editor. **The What** When the block editor is not iframed (which can happen when Custom Fields are active, or blocks that use and older `apiVersion` are present), style rules are processed using post css to append the `.editor-styles-wrapper` class name. This has the effect of scoping the the style rules to ensure they don't affect the editor chrome or admin. With [58241], one of the rules was changed to `.is-layout-flow > *`. In a iframed editor, the specificity of this rule is okay (0,1,0), but in a non-iframed editor it becomes `.editor-styles-wrapper .is-layout-flow > *`, a specificity of (0,2,0). Comparing this to before [58241], the same rule was `.editor-styles-wrapper :where(body .is-layout-flow) > *` (specificity 0,1,0). This is a regression in specificity that has caused some issues. Notably themes can no longer properly override the spacing for blocks using theme.json and have the results correctly shown in the non-iframed editor. **The How** This changeset modifies the selector to `:root :where(.is-layout-flow) > *` (still specificity 0,1,0). `transformStyles` handles 'root' selectors a little differently, it'll instead replace the `:root` part so it becomes `.editor-styles-wrapper where(.is-layout-flow) > *` (keeping the specificity at 0,1,0). The other layout selector that this affects is the `:first-child` `:last-child` selectors that are responsible for resetting margin at the start and end of a block list. They traditionally have a 0,2,0 specificity so that they can override both the above rule and any rules in the theme.json. Those selectors are also maintained at 0,2,0 with this change, they become something like `:root :where(.is-layout-flow) > :first-child`. **References:** * PHP changes from [WordPress/gutenberg#64076 Gutenberg PR 64076].
