Allow html in pagination labels

[huubl]

What problem does this address?

The current implementation of the core/query-pagination-previous and core/query-pagination-next blocks in Gutenberg use esc_html to escape the label text, which doesn't allow any HTML tags. This limits the freedom to set a label as Previous <span class="hide-on-mobile">Page</span>:

Right now this doesn't work:

function render_block_data_pagination($parsed_block)
{
	if ('core/query-pagination-previous' === $parsed_block['blockName']) {
		$parsed_block['attrs']['label'] = 'Previous <span class="hide-on-mobile">Page</span>';
	}

	return $parsed_block;
}
add_filter('render_block_data', 'render_block_data_pagination', 10, 3);

What is your proposed solution?

Switch from esc_html to wp_kses for escaping the label text, allowing the <span> tag, and maybe some other tags. This would give developers more freedom. Here's an example of how the code might look:

$allowed_html = array(
    'span' => array()
);

$label_text = isset($attributes['label']) && !empty($attributes['label'])
    ? wp_kses($attributes['label'], $allowed_html)
    : $default_label;
