CMS Static Block Widget saves the block identifier instead of block ID

[jansentjeu]

Preconditions and environment

• Magento version 2.4.7
• Make sure you have multiple stores configured

Steps to reproduce

1. Go in admin to Content -> Blocks
2. Create new block for a store
3. Create another block for another store with the same identifier
4. Go in admin to Content -> Widgets
5. Add new widget with type CMS Static Block
6. Click on the tab Widget Options in the sidebar
7. Select the block you created in step 3 (the block with the highest ID)
8. Save the widget
9. Check the saved block in the widget

Expected result

The block from step 3 is saved in the widget (the block with the highest ID)

Actual result

The block identifier is saved in the database instead of the block ID. This will automatically load the block with the lowest id. In this case, that is the block from step 2

Additional information

This issue was introduced by the change in this commit. This should be reverted. The way the code was before is correct.
