What?

Follow up to #84660.

• Actions registered with context: 'single' now show in the editor's actions menu (the post card panel in the document sidebar), and only there.

Why?

PostActions called usePostActions() without a context, and its filter drops every action that has one. So an action with context: 'single' showed on no screen, while context: 'list' correctly showed only in the DataViews lists. The server registry accepts single as a supported value, so a plugin could register an editor-only action that never appears. Found while testing the server actions API on #83537 (comment).

How?

• PostActions asks for the actions of the single context.
• Updates the outdated comment in usePostActions, which said list was the only supported context.
• Adds unit tests for the context filter of usePostActions, and checks that PostActions requests the single context.

Testing

1. Add the plugin from Register entity actions in the server #83537 (comment) to wp-content/plugins/demo-page-action/ and activate it.
   In demo-page-action.php, add 'context' => 'single' to the demo-page-details action ("Page details…").
2. Edit a page and open the ⋮ menu in the document sidebar. Verify "Page details…" shows (it's context: 'single') and "Show ID" doesn't (it's context: 'list'). On trunk, "Page details…" is missing.
3. Go to Site Editor > Pages, open a page's ⋮ menu, and verify "Show ID" shows and "Page details…" doesn't.
4. Verify the tests pass:

npm run test:unit -- packages/editor/src/components/post-actions
