Refine blog post block quote styling #1521

Description

@Paul-Hebert

We've had two passes over the Gutenberg quote block styles, but they still don't look quite right: https://v-next--cloudfour-patterns.netlify.app/?path=/docs/vendor-wordpress-core-blocks--quote#pullquote

We should refine these styles to work better in blog posts (and comments! Though maybe those are two different styles? I'm not sure. What do you think?)

We should also consider where those CSS styles are applied. There are a few places we may want to apply this?

  • The Gutenberg block
  • block quotes within Wordpress markdown content. (something like this):
    .wp-block-jetpack-markdown blockquote {
      /* blockquote styles */
    }
    
  • Within Wordpress comments? I'm not sure of the best way to handle this... should our .c-comment__content class style its children? Should we make a new "CMS Content" class we can apply wherever we expect CMS content?

Note: we do not want to style blockquote directly since that's used other places like testimonials

The primary task here is to refine the visual styles. If whoever takes on the task is confident in applying these styles in the correct places go for it! Alternately, feel free to reach out to team mates for advice, or close out this card and make a new card for applying those styles.
