Fixes: #67027

What?

This PR resolves an issue where videos in fullscreen mode may appear cropped due to the object-fit: cover style applied to video elements. The style for fullscreen videos has been overridden with object-fit: contain, ensuring the video maintains its aspect ratio and fits the screen dimensions.

Why?

This fix is necessary to address a usability issue where video content in fullscreen mode is partially cropped. The cropping occurs because the current styles apply object-fit: cover to video elements, including those displayed in fullscreen mode.

Testing Instructions

  1. Open a page or post containing a video block with a poster image.
  2. Play the video and click the fullscreen button.
  3. Observe that the video expands to fullscreen without being cropped, maintaining its original aspect ratio when doing
    object-fit: contain but gets cropped a little when doing object-fit: cover.

Screencast

With object-fit: cover;

with-cover.mov

With object-fit: contain;

with-contain.mov

This fix ensures videos in fullscreen mode maintain their aspect ratio without cropping. The `object-fit: cover` style for video elements has been overridden in fullscreen mode with `object-fit: contain`.
