Deleted media in Media Library still seen in the post or page.

[paaljoachim]

Description

I tested this issue. #11501
The issue itself is not valid any longer, but the point came up that deleting an image from the media library will still show the image in the post or page if it has been used.

When deleting an image (or perhaps audio file) from the Media library it should not still be visible in a post or page, but instead show the Image block placeholder.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

1. Add an image to the Media Library.
2. Go to a post. Add the Image block. Add an image. Publish the post.
3. Go to the Media Library and delete the image used in the post.
4. Go back to the post and notice the image is still seen as if it was not deleted.

Expected behaviour

After having deleted the image from the media library
Going back to the post or page the image should not be visible.
There should be a placeholder mentioning that the image has been deleted and that one now needs to replace it with another image.

Actually using the standard placeholder can work:

Actual behaviour

Deleting the image in the Media Library still shows the image in the post or page.

Somewhat related to this, we should better handle missing image attributes:

@paaljoachim This heavily overlaps with #23262 ; the difference between this issue and that one is that this issue; the deleted media can be seen by the end user outside of the edit; #23262 the image can still be seen in the block editor.

Thanks for mentioning the other issue Will @skorasaurus !
I am not sure if we should close this issue, or perhaps I should just add the duplicate label.

I think #35973 closes this as well.

Thank you @ramonjd Ramon and @glendaviesnz Glen!

Just tested on trunk. The placeholder will now appear where an image has been deleted 🎉

#35973 had to be reverted for WordPress 6.0 due to the following issues: #41161

Reopening. New WIP PR:

• Image: Reflect media deletion in the editor #41220

Closing this as a duplicate of #23262.
