/**
 * Lets the Blog Post block preview in the editor match the published page.
 *
 * The page queries posts with WP_Query (render.php); the editor previews them
 * through the REST API, which can't order randomly or by comment count, filter
 * to posts with a featured image, or report a post's comment count. This adds
 * exactly those:
 *
 * - `orderby=rand` and `orderby=comment_count`;
 * - `gutslider_has_image=1`: only posts with a featured image;
 * - a read-only `gutslider_comments` field: the approved comment count.
 *
 * Applied to every public post type in the REST API (the block can show any of them).
 *
 * @package GutSlider\Blocks
