Fix multiple editor instances issue (#4001)
React's strict mode runs effects twice on mount, but once it's done that
it'll go forward with the state from the first effect. For example, this
component:

```tsx
let nextId = 1
function Component() {
	const [state, setState] = useState(null)
	useEffect(() => {
		const id = nextId++
		console.log('set up', id)
		setState(id)
		return () => console.log('tear down', id)
	}, [])
	if (!state) return
	console.log('render', state)
}
```

Would log something like this when mounting for the first time:
- `set up 1`
- `tear down 1`
- `set up 2`
- `render 1`

For us, this is a problem: editor 2 is the version that's still running,
but editor 1 is getting used for render. React talks a bit about this
issue here: https://github.com/reactwg/react-18/discussions/19

The fix seems to be to keep the editor in a `useRef` instead of a
`useState`. We need the state to trigger re-renders though, so we sync
the ref into the state although we don't actually use the state value.
