[Enhancement]: Add a confirmation dialog before unfollowing someone #553

Feature Description

Small UX improvement suggestion here.
Right now if you click the unfollow button on the Friends page it immediately unfollows the person with no warning at all. I've accidentally unfollowed a couple of people while scrolling on my phone because the button is easy to tap by mistake.
A simple confirmation like:

"Are you sure you want to unfollow @username?"

[Cancel] [Unfollow]

would go a long way in preventing accidental disconnections. This feels especially important since following someone can be tied to points and streaks in some flows, so accidentally undoing it is frustrating.
Nothing fancy needed, even a simple browser-style confirm or a small modal would work!
