Sidebar Tabs: Refine use of inspector tabs and disable filters for Nav blocks

[aaronrobertshaw]

Related:

• Sidebar Tabs: Use editor settings to override display #46321

What?

• Makes the checking of available block inspector tabs a little more robust
• Adds more context via inline comments to navigation link & submenu filters disabling tabs

Why?

More robust = good
More clarity = good

How?

• Add optional chaining to the checks for availableTabs length
• Return stable reference for "no tabs" result from useInspectorControlsTabs
• Add inline comments with links to discussions on why we are disabling tabs for Navigation Link & Submenu blocks

Testing Instructions

1. Enable both the "off canvas navigation editor" and "block inspector tabs" Gutenberg experiments
2. Edit a post
3. Add a navigation block and a navigation link
4. Ensure the navigation block is selected
5. Under the navigation block's list view tab edit the link
6. You should now have the navigation link block selected without any display of tabs in the block inspector

Testing Instructions for Keyboard

1. Enable both the "off canvas navigation editor" and "block inspector tabs" Gutenberg experiments
2. Edit a post
3. Add a navigation block and a navigation link
4. Ensure the navigation block is selected
5. Tab through to the navigation block's list view tab and focus the navigation link's edit button
6. Press space and you should then have the navigation link block selected with no tabs displayed in the block inspector
