Description
I'm running into an error when marking a delivered CF7 message as spam in Flamingo.
This is the full call stack (domain replaced with placeholder the-website.com):

Problem
cf7a_ban_by_ip() declares $reason as array:
CF7_AntiSpam_Flamingo::cf7a_d8_flamingo_classify() sends a fixed string: cf7-antispam/core/CF7_AntiSpam_Flamingo.php
Line 124 in 2c18e00
Note: Line numbers differ from call stack because I'm on released version 0.7.2.
Solution
Changing the line to
CF7_Antispam_Blacklist::cf7a_ban_by_ip( $flamingo_post->meta['remote_ip'], ['flamingo ban'] );solves the issue and makes the feature work again. I'll create a PR.
