Why a new action, why not just remove the edits on REMOVE_ITEMS action?

removeItems is in the queried-data actions file, which made it feel like it should be specific to that reducer.
But I see now RECEIVE_ITEMS is used in both reducers.
Maybe both receiveItems and removeItems should be moved to the base actions.js file.

I think an action inside the "queried-data" can be used outside but the opposite shouldn't be the case.
In other words, I see the dependency as: "core store" depends on "queried data store" and not the other way around.

Ok, I thought of it more like a hierarchy where queried-data was a sub-reducer, but I see how it could be considered a dependency.
I've switched it to use removeItems.

This works, but unfortunately after the removal a new edit is pushed onto the stack for the deleted entity. It isn't undo-able though, the undo button is greyed out. Not sure why, but at least it prevents a buggy state.
I think we also need to avoid pushing edits on the stack for removed items to solve this.

Test would ideally push a different record onto the undo stack to assert that only the deleted record is removed, but it took me so long to understand how these tests work, and it looks like the whole 'framework' for these tests would need to be re-written to support more than one record.
Maybe after WordPress 5.9 I'll take some time to look at it, but right now time is something I don't have.

Description
Alternative to #36027
If an entity is deleted in an editor, the entity saving panel tries to show it as an
undefinedthing that needs to be saved:Since a delete is immediate, that shouldn't be the case.
This change removes 'edits' and 'undo' records for deleted entities so that they don't appear in the entity panel.
How has this been tested?
