Rename setting to `block_branch_modification`

Alexander Turinske requested to merge 432090-rename-setting into master

What does this MR do and why?

Rename setting to block_branch_modification

  • the previous setting name block_unprotecting_branches was not quite accurate
  • the new setting name better reflects the action it is taking
