    made a interesting discovery, under core\modules\node\src\Nodeform, inside function protected function actions(), if I hard code $element['submit']['#access'] to ture, "Save and Publish" button returned, it seems problem lies in $node->type->entity->getPreviewMode(), I will report back.

Ok, post an answer here.

This is because I did turned on "Preview before submit" option.

to turn it off, 1> Edit the content type 2> Click "Submission form settings" 3> Set "Preview before submitting" to Optional.

But I just find a problem/bug , when you turn on "Preview before submit". I am unable to update/modify my content, it always redirect me to "Preview" page.

here is how to reproduce it.

1> turn on "Preview before Submitting" option
2> create a content, at first, you can save the content.
3> then try to modify / edit that content again,you will find out 
    you are unable to save the content.
