The issue

When trying to add a link to this string of raw text:  , the text is converted into  .

Reproduction steps

  1. Edit a Paragraph block as HTML.
  2. Replace the content between the <p> tags with the following: &amp;nbsp;.
  3. Switch back to editing the block visually.
  4. Select the entire string of text.
  5. Click the Link button in the block toolbar.
  6. Enter # as the URL and press Enter.
  7. Edit the block as HTML.
  8. Notice that the content has been modified and is now <a href="#">&nbsp;</a>.

Expected behavior

After adding a link, the content between the <p> tags should be <a href="#">&amp;nbsp;</a>.

This has been fixed as of Gutenberg 6.9.0, presumably because of #17994.
