Fixed blocks of pretransitive actions #

A set fixed by every element of a group acting pretransitively is empty or the whole space: any point of the set reaches every point of the space inside the set. This is the triviality lemma for MulAction.IsFixedBlock missing next to mathlib's MulAction.IsBlock API.
