This ensures that non-block cases don't actually change LineCursor state (which can cause some synchronization inconsistencies that then break navigation).

Fixes RaspberryPiFoundation/blockly-keyboard-experimentation#526
Proposed Changes
This limits synchronizing in
LineCursorfromFocusManagerto just nodes that have a corresponding block.Reason for Changes
Limiting the synchronizing in this way ensures that navigation can't enter a bad state. The reason for why this is needed is explained in RaspberryPiFoundation/blockly-keyboard-experimentation#526 (comment).
Longer term it would maybe be ideal to do one or both of the following:
Marker's internal state in favor of always relying onFocusManager's state to cover the cases where there can be automatic focus shifting.Test Coverage
This was manually tested with the keyboard navigation plugin and verified to ensure that both RaspberryPiFoundation/blockly-keyboard-experimentation#526 and RaspberryPiFoundation/blockly-keyboard-experimentation#499 are (still) working as expected. Some basic testing was done with the core simple playground with the developer console open to ensure there weren't any expected failures.
Automated testing cases would be better addressed as part of resolving #8915.
Documentation
No new documentation is needed here.
Additional Information
This behavior is expected to only affect the keyboard navigation plugin.
