Feature description

Add a block button on channel's page

Why do you want this feature?

Current implementation of channel blocking is just hiding the uploaders. But what i want is just a block or hide button on three dots menu to block channels quickly rather than manual copy and pasting names.

Why ist the feature relevant to this fork?

As dev stated in https://github.com/polymorphicshade/NewPipe/discussions/260#discussioncomment-3936240 , we want to keep tubular easy to maintain by being close to upstream newpipe's code. So my suggestion is like this.

Since Tubular R1 uses uploader names to hide channels. Maybe adding a block button on the three dots menu when accessing a channel's page. Upon blocking it, it maybe would add it to the uploader hide list in settings or it's own database if present (and clear the cache so reloading the page would hide all videos) Screenshot_20221027-081141_Tubular RC1_1
