Description

I was surprised to find out, that the "Align left" and "Align right" options break the content width layout for some Blocks like Cover. I have a feeling there are some clear: boths missing.

This seems like a good related issue to a general overhaul: #62840.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

1. Insert Block (e.g. Image Block) and set to "Align left".

2. Add Paragraph Blocks after the Image Block.

3. Observe, how the Image Block floats left of the Paragraph Blocks, indenting the text.

4. Insert second Image Block after the left aligned Block and set to "Wide width".

5. Observe, how the floating Image Block sits above the wide aligned Image Block. This is correct.

6. Transform the second Image Block to a Cover Block.

7. Observe, how the floating Block pushes the Cover Block out of the way, breaking the layout.
