Description

To be done after 2025-09-14, because the legacy unit page still uses this URL route.

The URL route http://apps.local.openedx.io:2001/authoring/course/:courseId/editor/:type/:blockId was used when we had full-screen editors but now that they're in modals, the only use of this route is for the legacy unit page which is deprecated in Teak (off by default) and will be removed entirely before Ulmo.

The corresponding EditorContainer can be deleted at the same time, which is good because it's easily confused with the other EditorContainer which is still used.
