[5.x]: Matrix field entry edits don't update owner element revision history

[daltonrooney]

What happened?

Description

When editing a matrix field entry, the draft and revision behavior is inconsistent depending on the edit mode. From the slide-in panel, making an edit to a nested entry creates a revision point on the owner entry. This doesn't happen when editing directly on the nested entry.

In addition, nested entries don't appear to have their own revision history. This seems like it would be important if they're not saving their history back to the owner element.

Steps to reproduce

1. Create an entry type that contains a matrix field using the default card view.

2. Add an entry to the matrix field and save. Click the title of the new entry card to open in a new view. Make any edits and save.

3. The browser navigates back to the owner entry, but no revision history has been added.

Expected behavior

Revision history is consistent between both edit modes.
