This was mostly just to get the ball rolling on one option which is monkey patching the ReactCurrentDispatcher before doing the render. However, if we go this route, we'll probably have to reproduce similar logic for hooks found here. This seems fragile and increases maintenance burden. The other (maybe not significant) potential issue is that essentially any logic in a useEffect or useLayoutEffect hook in a rendered component will not fire if we use something similar to ReactPartialRendererHooks because this serializer is effectively doing similar to what server type tasks do (as opposed to browser).

If renderToString is mostly used for the save function of blocks (stateless components) I wonder if we should simply detect usages of withSelect/hooks and simply NOT support them (throw errors?).
