Auto-save alert links to old revision screen

[bph]

Description

When a user returns to a post and the editor discovers that there is a more recent auto-save version than the version the user is on, the block editor displayes a warning on top of the screen with the link
"View the autosave". The URL points to the old screens at /wp-admin/revision.php?revision=xxxx

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

• Open a post in browser window.
• Make changes to the post.
• Don't save.
• Open a different browser
• open the same post in the block editor.
• That should display a the warning as in the screenshot above.

I expected to see the new revisions screen, that can be accessed from the block editor side bar.

IMO, another reason to render the autosave badge next to revisions - #68932.

The fix would be to change the "View the autosave" action to call setCurrentRevisionId with the autosave's revision ID instead of linking to revision.php - keeping the user in the editor and opening the inline revisions UI.
That said, agree with @Mamaduka that the right solution is #68932. Happy to raise a PR with the interim fix if that's useful while the bigger UX work is in progress.
