I'm showing 100 posts now because pagination is not supported yet.

I'm also showing the excerpt, post date and title. Ideally, this would use a "Query" block where you could decide to show post comment count... (but the query block is not implemented yet).

Definitely should be a Query since we need to read from the query context. It's also why I don't think adding pagination support to latest posts is a great idea: WordPress/gutenberg#19969 (comment)

This looks good! Fully agree that this should be done with the Query block when it's ready... the latest posts block actually has some very different built-in styles:
(Honestly, those original styles look like a bug, so I'll look into that later 😅)
Luckily for the moment, those styles aren't being inherited here. 😄 This PR pointed out that the default block styles like those are only being used if the block lives directly inside of an "approved" container such as .entry-content, .site-header, or .site-footer. This is fine for now, but the original Twenty Nineteen style.css file could probably use a refactor in another PR so that those styles are less specific.
In any case, I added some minor fixes, and I think this is good to go as a proof of concept. We can revisit when the query block is live.

This PR tries to add a home page showing the list of posts to the 2019 theme using the recent posts block.
