Write tests, implement schema, drop D8/9 support, adjust block settings structure [#3479961]

Problem/Motivation

Would be great to have tests to ensure the module works as expected. Shouldn't be too hard, as the module is not that complicated. So I'll tag this as novice task.

The tests should include

Create dummy content, like nodes or taxonomy terms
Placing a block of this type for a certain menu
Use the default block settings and ensure the results appear as expected
Ensure the block is present and shows up as expected
Adjust all settings one by one and ensure things go as expected

Steps to reproduce

Proposed resolution

Remaining tasks

User interface changes

API changes

Data model changes

Thank you @faust74! Looking very much forward to that! Feel free to ask here, if you should have any questions.

These snippets and tests from core may help, maybe!
