There's no notion of "coinbase" any more. Mining is not directed by Geth any more, rather by the beacon client.

In case of dev mode, this is a bit "peculiar"., because the beacon client is a simulated stub part of Geth, but still, Geth itself is "unaware" of who the block author will be, so it doesn't provide an API any more to retrieve it.

This unfortunately will be an idiosyncrasy in dev mode to avoid creating dedicated APIs for it.

E.g. On a live PoS node, you can set etherbase/coinbase to anything, it will be completely ignored and the one provided by the beacon client will be used. We kept etherbase only for backwards compatibility with non merged networks, but was getting wonky. Since we dropped non-merge support, cleaning this makes everything less ambiguous. Everything except dev mode as it turns out :)
