refactor(gatsby): improve EnsureResources (#10224)

- `getDerivedStateFromProps`
  - Remove unused parameter `pageResources`
  - Return even if we don't have resources, to allow detecting them later
- Remove `componentDidUpdate` and move some of its contents into new `retryResources`
- Throw an error on initial render only upon missing resources - otherwise just don't update the component, and remove the function `shouldRenderStaticHTML`
  - Note: this may need updating in the future - React docs say `shouldComponentUpdate` is only for performance purposes and may not prevent rendering in future versions
- Add a new function for detecting if we have resources which works for production and develop
