Updated block picker modal

We have updated the block picker modal to make it clearer which block you currently have selected and which block you are about to replace it with.

---

Air block visualization

Since air blocks typically don't exist in the block picker in Minecraft, we needed a way to visualize them in the Editor. We now have an image representing air blocks to make it clearer when they are selected.
