Description

As described in #4929, the actions usually in edit-form-advanced.php are delayed by Gutenberg. This PR aims to restore the same order as in WordPress 4.9. Thus:
dbx_post_advanced
add_meta_boxes
add_meta_boxes_{$post_type}
do_meta_boxes
edit_form_advanced
are fired before admin_enqueue_scripts instead of after admin_head.

How has this been tested?

I aimed to test the changes with a few plugins adding metaboxes:

  • ACF 5.7.7
  • CMB2 2.4.2
  • Metabox 4.15.5
  • Polylang 2.3.11

Note: ACF seems to be broken in the current development version of Gutenberg (Updating the post does not save the ACF values). This PR does change the result. ACF was working correctly with Gutenberg 3.9. So I assume that the current version of Gutenberg breaks ACF in a way which not related to this issue.

All metaboxes of other plugins seem to work correctly before and after applying this PR . I can correctly change values and changes are applied when saving the post.

A broken functionality of Polylang is restored by this PR (importing taxonomies and metas from an original post when creating a new translations). This functionnality is not related to the visible aspect of metaboxes but uses the add_meta_boxes action to work.

Fixes #4929

👍 I'd like to get this in 4.1 so we can know whether we need to rip it out in 4.2 (or, hopefully, not).
