Update Filter.php to allow {{block template="Magento_Module::path/to/template.phtml"}} and setting \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template as default class

[JDavidVR]

Description (*)

Besides: {{block id="static_cms_block" }} {{block id="1" }} {{block class='\Magento\Theme\Block\Html\Footer' name='test.block' template='Magento_Theme::html/footer.phtml'}}

It also allows: {{block template='Magento_Module::html/footer.phtml'}} setting as default block: \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template

like layout.xml is doing: https://developer.adobe.com/commerce/frontend-core/guide/layouts/xml-instructions/#block

Hi @JDavidVR. Thank you for your contribution! Here are some useful tips on how you can test your changes using Magento test environment.

Add the comment under your pull request to deploy test or vanilla Magento instance:

• @magento give me test instance - deploy test instance based on PR changes
• @magento give me 2.4-develop instance - deploy vanilla Magento instance

:exclamation: Automated tests can be triggered manually with an appropriate comment:

• @magento run all tests - run or re-run all required tests against the PR changes
• @magento run <test-build(s)> - run or re-run specific test build(s) For example: @magento run Unit Tests

<test-build(s)> is a comma-separated list of build names.

Allowed build names are:

1. Database Compare
2. Functional Tests CE
3. Functional Tests EE
4. Functional Tests B2B
5. Integration Tests
6. Magento Health Index
7. Sample Data Tests CE
8. Sample Data Tests EE
9. Sample Data Tests B2B
10. Static Tests
11. Unit Tests
12. WebAPI Tests
13. Semantic Version Checker

You can find more information about the builds here :information_source: Run only required test builds during development. Run all test builds before sending your pull request for review.

@andrewbess I've already signed the Adobe CLA

Not sure why it is not updated

@mrtuvn this change allows to call templates files in cms_pages & cms_blocks

For ex. {{block template='Magento_Module::template/file.phtml'}} instead of {{block class= ' \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template' template='Magento_Module::template/file.phtml'}}

this change is inspired on how layout.xml is working:

@magento run all tests
