I think this works, but I have a bunch of refactoring suggestions to make this more consistent and make our APIs even better.

I don't want the get_block_olx API to accept a user param if it doesn't really need/user the user. I also don't like that this initializes the runtime just to compute the version. So I think it's better to do something like:

authored_data_mode = get_xblock_app_config().get_runtime_params()["authored_data_mode"]
if version == LatestVersion.AUTO:
    version = LatestVersion.DRAFT if authored_data_mode == AuthoredDataMode.DEFAULT_DRAFT else LatestVersion.PUBLISHED

This could be moved into a helper function.

Since this is technically a public API, and not marked as unstable, you should create a backwards-compatibility wrapper:

def get_block_draft_olx(usage_key: UsageKeyV2) -> str:
    """ DEPRECATED. Use get_block_olx(). Can be removed post-Teak. """
    return get_block_olx(usage_key, version=LatestVersion.DRAFT)

I think that we should actually move this API endpoint to the XBlock REST API.

After this:

# get/post full json fields of an XBlock:
path('fields/', views.BlockFieldsView.as_view()),

I didn't do this originally because we needed to check the CAN_VIEW_THIS_CONTENT_LIBRARY permission. But now we have check_permission=CheckPerm.CAN_READ_AS_AUTHOR available, so we can implement this in the XBlock API. I think that would be much nicer, and then in the future we can access the OLX for all XBlocks consistently, not just library blocks.

Please keep this libraries "draft" OLX REST API in place for backwards compatibility but mark it as deprecated and to be removed post-Teak.
