The error leaves the remote editor in a broken state.
My bad – I never used a remote editor for testing.

We cannot reference `@wordpress` modules in the remote editor runtime until after the site-specific scripts are loaded. Utilizing a dynamic import defers the global `window.wp` reference. We now also apply the same transformations made to static imports to dynamic imports as well.
