[openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website] Modify the way "Friends" are added (#3310)

[David Tsiklauri]

This issue was about modifying "friends" functionality and changing it to the "follow". As tomhughes mentioned:

We chose to go with the second model.

And as Fizzie41 mentioned:

>In that case, no, it's probably nothing to be concerned about then.
Although "follow", rather than "friend" is a good idea!

#5261 fixes it and is merged. If we want changes how "follow" functionality should behave when user is reported or blocked from editing, it should be a separate issue. Creating a new issue will help issues to be separated by changes they are proposing, and it will also make discussion easier. Therefore, it's better to close (resolve) this issue and create a new issue about changing behavior of "follow"/"friendship" functionality when user is reported or blocked.
