Subject: [PATCH] Blocks: Document Block Hooks functions as private.

Documents the 4 new 6.4 Block Hooks global functions as private and for Core-only internal usage:

* `make_before_block_visitor()`
* `make_after_block_visitor()`
* `traverse_and_serialize_block()`
* `traverse_and_serialize_blocks()`

This is being done as the architectural design of these new functions may change in the next cycle. Further denoting them as private / Core only can help to avoid extender churn if any of these functions are deprecated.

Follow up to [56649], [56620].

Props azaozz, hellofromTonya, bernhard-reiter, gziolo, mikeschroder.
Fixes #59783.
See #59313.
