Use more inclusive language for the public API and throughout the codebase

Throughout the codebase, there are references to "whitelists" and "blacklists".
These terms come with certain baggage and are not exactly inclusive.
By migrating to terms such as "allow list" and "deny list", this gem's API and
codebase will be more inclusive to all users and maintainers.

Thank you for the feedback, I will surely look into it and try to
accommodate in the next release.
thanks & regards,
Sunit.
