Description

Describe the bug

There is a mismatch between pattern editor and pattern preview, rendering the editor unusable:

The pattern editor content width is very narrow.

It also does not allow setting up wide/full alignment on top-level blocks in the content area.

Expected behavior
Editor should be full width and it should allow setting up wide/full alignment for the top-level blocks.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the narrow pattern editor content area and compare it with the pattern preview shown in the issue. Check whether top-level blocks can be configured for wide or full alignment; done means the editor is full width and supports those alignments consistently with the preview.
