Description

This is part of an idea to improve the VideoPress experience inside the new Media tab on the Gutenberg Inserter.

- when a VideoPress video is selected, a videopress/video block should be created
- currently, a `core/video` is inserted, what results on
- different experiences for Jetpack plugin users vs. VideoPress standalone plugin users (v5 block vs. pure core video block)
- the user not having access to the full functionalities of the VideoPress block

Notes:

- this feature depends on the Inserter Media tab becoming extensible. More info on pe4Cmx-LC-p2.

This issue is related to #28651.

Research direction

Start with the Gutenberg Inserter Media tab extensibility described in pe4Cmx-LC-p2 and compare the current core/video insertion path with the VideoPress v6 block behavior. Done means selecting a VideoPress video creates videopress/video and exposes its full functionality consistently for Jetpack and standalone users; review related issue #28651.
