Blocks: Introduce a variation of serialize blocks helper with traversing

Introduces two new functions `traverse_and_serialize_blocks` and `traverse_and_serialize_block` with the additional `$callback` argument. It is possible to pass parent block, block index, chunk index to the callback argument.

Reverts changes applied to `serialize_blocks` and `serialize_block` in #59327 with [56557].

Props ockham, mukesh27.
See #59313.
