Description

As I was writing out the different actions in the Microsub spec, I noticed a pattern that was not complete:
- timeline
- channels
- search
- preview
- follow + unfollow
- mute + unmute
- block _+ unblock?_

It makes sense that there's also an `action=unblock`, for `action=block` has the same `GET` and `POST` as `follow` and `mute`, that would make such an unblock action possible.

Research direction

Start with the Microsub specification's action definitions and compare block with follow and mute, including their GET and POST behavior. Confirm the proposed unblock action's request and response semantics and update the relevant specification text; done when the action is documented consistently and its behavior is unambiguous.
