What?

Easier to review without whitespace changes.

Just puts the UI changes in place and shows the plain revisions without a visual difference.

Why?

This is a preparatory PR for #74443: it makes it easier to review.

How?

We need to render an interface similar to the editor but with important differences:

  • A lot of the header buttons and controls are different, but we reuse the same structure. Document bar becomes slider.
  • The sidebar remain to display meta info (more to come in follow-ups). It's also important so that the layout doesn't shift too much.
  • For now we just render the revision content without a visual diff.

Testing Instructions

Make some revisions to published post, then click the revision count in the document inspector.
