useBlockSync: Fix race condition when onChange callback changes #24012

Description

In the useBlockSync hook, if the onChange or onInput callbacks changed while the same component instance was being used, the old onChange/onInput callbacks were used instead of the updated ones.

For more context, in #23292, we started setting a ref with the latest onChange/onInput callbacks, but we unfortunately never consumed that ref. cc @youknowriad. This updates the block-editor subscription such that it uses the onChange and onInput refs. This way, it always uses the latest versions of the callbacks.

Specifically, this fixes #23967 (a result of the race condition).

How has this been tested?

Locally, in edit-site.

Awesome! I can confirm this fixes #23967. The changes make sense to me, onChange/onInput should no longer become outdated in the subscribed function using these refs. And thank you for adding the test! 😄

(small nit Q on the test but this looks good!)
