Allow collapsing margins & adjust block toolbar

This PR refactors how the block toolbar is positioned. Because we use sticky, the toolbar is part of the flow of the block itself. In this PR it uses translate to pull it out of the flow, making the positioning more resilient.

The primary purpose of this PR is to allow margins to collapse. When two margins meet, and no borders or paddings are present, they collapse. I.e. a `p` with a 20px margin next to a similar `p` will have only 20px margin between them, not 40px, because the two siblings collapse to whichever margin is the largest. By allowing margins on blocks to collapse, we can make it easier to theme the editor to look like the frontend.
