Featured Product Block Search is Broken

[mikejolley]

Describe the bug

On a store with a large number (+100) products, search appears to be broken when using the Featured Product Block. On a smaller catalog you can simulate this by editing the values in:

https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce-gutenberg-products-block/blob/5f34c86072936ac908a93c49881775d21df69a6a/assets/js/editor-components/utils/index.js#L19

To reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behaviour:

1. Have a large catalog, or edit the function above so it does requests to the API
2. Insert Featured Product Block
3. Enter a search term for a product not visible in the list
4. No results. Query has search=& in it.

Expected behaviour

It should do the query and return the filtered results.

This was reported here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/feature-product-not-wordking-correcly/ I reproduced it locally.
