feat: implement DELETE /comments/event/:eventId route to delete all comments by event ID

Summary

This pull request implements the DELETE /comments/event/:eventId route that allows the creator of an event to delete all comments by a specific event ID. The route ensures that only the creator of the event can perform the deletion.

Changes Implemented

• Added deleteCommentsByEventId method to commentController to handle deleting all comments by event ID.
• Created a new route in commentRoutes.js for DELETE /comments/event/:eventId, protected by authenticateToken.
• Implemented error handling to return 404 Not Found if no comments are found for the event.
• Verified functionality with Postman tests.
• Added a check to ensure only the creator of the event can delete the comments.

How to Test

1. Delete All Comments as Event Creator:

   • Send a DELETE request to http://localhost:5000/comments/event/:eventId with a valid event ID and a token belonging to the creator of the event in the Authorization header.
   • Ensure the response includes { message: 'All comments deleted successfully' }.

2. No Comments Found:

   • Send a DELETE request to http://localhost:5000/comments/event/:eventId with a valid event ID but no comments for that event.
   • Ensure the response is 404 Not Found.

3. Unauthorized Deletion Attempt:

   • Send a DELETE request to http://localhost:5000/comments/event/:eventId with a valid event ID and a token from a user who is not the creator of the event.
   • Ensure the response is 403 Forbidden.
