Description

Currently there are two build workflows — build.yml to build the plugins and classic theme, and build-blocks.yml which only builds the new block theme. These also push to separate git branches (build and build-blocks).

Likewise, there are two sync scripts — the original for the classic theme and plugins, and a new one for the block theme.

These should be combined into one workflow, one branch, and one sync script.

Research direction

Start by comparing .github/workflows/build.yml and .github/workflows/build-blocks.yml, then locate the two sync scripts for the classic and block themes. Consolidate the workflows, branch targets, and sync entry points so plugins and both themes use one build path, one branch, and one sync script.
