FavoriteController's constructor called $this->middleware('auth'),
which no longer exists on Laravel 12's base Controller (removed in the
framework's slimmer controller base). Every favorite-toggle request was
500ing. The routes already sit inside a Route::middleware('auth') group
in web.php, so the constructor was both redundant and broken - removed it.
Separately, exercises.exercise_db_id was NOT NULL with a unique
constraint, but the admin "create exercise" form never set it (that
column only gets populated by the fetch:exercise importer). Creating an
exercise by hand through the admin UI has been broken since it was
built. Made the column nullable.
Both found by adding feature test coverage, not by manual testing.

BlogController was an empty stub with no view, so /blog 500'd on every
visit. Adds a real Post model, public listing/detail pages, and an admin
CRUD screen mirroring the existing Exercise admin pattern (image upload
or URL, auto-slug, publish toggle). Seeds 5 real posts so it's not empty
on launch.
Also fixes two things that were silently broken: phpunit.xml pointed
DB_DATABASE at a non-existent "testing" file with no DB_CONNECTION set,
and the stock ExampleTest had RefreshDatabase commented out - both meant
the test suite never actually ran successfully.
