Fix #544

This change adds a new feature that allows members to block other members. A blocked member is prevented from following, sending private messages, replying to posts, and liking content of the member who blocked them.

This commit introduces a blocking feature that allows members to block other members.

A blocked member is prevented from:
- following the blocker
- sending private messages to the blocker
- replying to the blocker's posts
- liking the blocker's content

The implementation includes:
- A new `Block` model and a corresponding database table.
- Updates to the `Member` model to include associations for blocks.
- A new `BlocksController` to handle blocking and unblocking actions.
- New routes for the `BlocksController`.
- UI changes to add block/unblock buttons to the member profile page.
- Validations in the `Follow`, `Comment`, and `Like` models to enforce the blocking rules.
- A check in the `MessagesController` to prevent sending messages to a member who has blocked the sender.
- A callback in the `Block` model to destroy the follow relationship when a block is created.
- New feature and model specs to test the blocking functionality.

- New feature and model specs to test the blocking functionality.

This commit also fixes a failing test in the blocking feature. The error was caused by the validation being called even when the `member` association was `nil`. A guard has been added to the validation methods in the `Like`, `Follow`, and `Comment` models to prevent this from happening.
