Core Data: add missing @wordpress/base-styles dependency

[manzoorwanijk]

What?

Follow up to #80485. Adds the missing @wordpress/base-styles dependency to @wordpress/core-data.

Why?

#80485 moved entities-saved-states/style.scss into core-data, which uses @wordpress/base-styles, but the dependency was never declared in the package's package.json. See #80485 (comment).

The missing dependency was caught in #75814, which uses isolated dependencies.

How?

Declares @wordpress/base-styles in dependencies, matching how other style-shipping packages (block-editor, editor, components) declare it.

Testing Instructions

1. Run npm install and npm run build.
2. Verify the build succeeds and packages/core-data/src/components/entities-saved-states/style.scss compiles.

@youknowriad I'm surprised to learn that core-data now contains UI components, with dependencies on @wordpress/components and @wordpress/base-styles. Do we really want this kind of code there? Until now it's been a data-only package that works only with data. Even the React hooks in the package work only with data.

I we want to move EntitiesSavedStates out of editor, are there better packages? Like block-editor, maybe?

Quoting from #80485 (review)

For me this is a one of the two good paths forward, so I'm approving.

What was the other good path? Maybe the other one was better 🙂

The block-editor should remain WP agnostic, with no core-data dependencies or direct REST API calls to it. We also have this in AGENT.md.

I also don't like that core-data now contains UI components, but I think it could have a hook like useDirtyEntityRecords. The hook handles all data normalization/labeling + provides setter and save methods. Then, building a UI shell around it for display should be simple.

I started experimenting with this idea and have a local draft, will try to polish and create a PR.
