Description
Hey @mattgrshaw
it seems the acf/prepare_field filter is not working if the field is embedded via clone field. I've tested the filter on a direct implemented field of an ACF block and the result, it's working fine.
But if the ACF block contains a field embedded via clone field, nothing happened:
function my_acf_render_fieldtest( $field ) {
error_log(print_r($field,true));
return false;
}
add_filter('acf/prepare_field/key=field_63971a3eecb6f', 'my_acf_render_fieldtest');
The field is still there and nothing is outputted to $field.

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Reproduce the reported acf/prepare_field filter with a direct field and the same field embedded through a clone field in an ACF block, then trace why the cloned field does not invoke the filter. Done means the filter receives the cloned field and returning false removes it as it does for the direct field.
