User Ban - Chat

This is a great moderation feature provided by Stream. Ban is a server-side operation -

There are 2 types of ban available.

1. Channel Ban

2. Client Ban (App Ban / User Ban)

Channel Ban

let data = await channel.banUser('Liya', {
     banned_by_id: "Diya",
    timeout: 10,
     ip_ban: false,
     reason: 'Please try again after later', });

Query banned users -

If you have banned them from a channel, you can use 

queryMembers ({banned:true}) 

or 

client.queryBannedUsers({ channel_cid: ''}) 

to find the list of banned users from that particular channel.

To unban a user -

await channel.unbanUser('Liya');

Client Ban (App Ban / User Ban)

let data1 = await client.banUser('Seetha', {
    banned_by_id: userID,
