LGTM! Block transformation, block deprecation, and shortcut all work correctly.

At first glance, I thought that if the source block was a paragraph block, we should check attributes.align instead of attributes.textAlign, but it seems that the migration of the paragraph block has already been processed at this point.

One cool follow-up to this would be to allow "justify" but only at the global styles level. |

What
Migrates the Paragraph block to use the
textAlignblock support instead of a customalignattribute. As a consequence it also enables global styles support for textAlign for the paragraph block.Why?
The Paragraph block currently implements its own text alignment logic with a custom
alignattribute, duplicating code that should be handled by the centralizedtextAlignblock support. This migration reduces code duplication and consolidates alignment handling across blocks.How?
Replaces the custom logic with the block supports, adds deprecation and fixes transforms.
