#6834: Support Forums: Require a reason when flagging a user

 Currently, when flagging a user, it's a single-click action, and relies on
 the flagger adding a user-note, and the user them selves are left without
 much information.

 By improving the flagging procedure, we can request a reason for the
 flagging, and automatically include this in the user notes.

 In addition, we can improve the user communication by allowing them to see
 not only that their account is flagged, but also ''why'' they are flagged,
 and set expectations accordingly.

 The reason should have some predefined reasons to choose from, which are
 all based off our guidelines, and allows us to curate the user-facing
 messages to reduce friction, but must also allow for manual inputs for
 edge case handling.

 This information would be visible to the user on their forums profile, and
 by having an area dedicated to flagged user information there, we can also
 tie in #5715 / #5881 to have the ability to flag/unflag a user from the
 profile as well.
