This works well in my testing, both in Storybook and in the editor itself.
Great cleanup and definitely a more elegant solution to the problem. Nice work @stokesman 🚀
Could you just add a CHANGELOG entry? I think it will be useful.

What?
Largely reverts the changes from #55149 and instead employs pointer capture in the color picker component.
Why?
Simplification.
How?
Using pointer capture during drag gestures prevents object like iframes from receiving pointer events and interfering with the drag gesture.
Testing Instructions
Testing Instructions for Keyboard
The changes here should only be relevant to the drag gestures which cannot be tested by keyboard.

More info
There is potential that a future version of the react-colorful library may use pointer capture itself and we'd be able to remove that from the ColorPicker component. A PR for such has been opened in the past and the author declined to merge at the time because they prioritize supporting older browsers. I'm pretty sure the WordPress policy on browser support is in the clear for use of PointerEvents/capture.
