useRecordContext inside <Create> always returns "undefined"

What you were expecting:
As per the docs, useRecordContext should return the record when used inside a <Create> component. Instead, it's always undefined no matter if the from is filled out or not.

Go to post create and check console:

Environment

• React-admin version: 4.8.4
• Last version that did not exhibit the issue (if applicable):
• React version: 17 in StackBlitz, 18 locally.
• Browser: Chrome 111

useRecordContext returns the record used to initialize the form. If you want to react to changes in the form values, you have to use react-hook-form's useWatch.

The useRecordContext doc is probably not explicit enough about that, so we should fix it.

I assumed something of that sort was the case. Thanks for the response! 👍
