fix(authz): require admin to edit/cover crawler-imported mangas (0.87.3)

`require_can_edit` matched `Some(owner) != caller → Forbidden` but let
`None` through. Every crawler row (`repo::crawler::upsert_manga`) has
NULL `uploaded_by`, so any signed-in user could PATCH /api/v1/mangas/<id>
and rewrite the catalog — `update`, `put_cover`, and `delete_cover`
were all in scope. With self-registration on by default, the path was:
register → mass-edit catalog + delete cover blobs from storage.

The original carve-out at the comment said "Once an admin role lands the
NULL case can flip to admin-only." The admin role landed in migration
0018; flipping it now. New rule:

  * `Some(owner)` and owner == caller → ok (unchanged)
  * `Some(_)` and caller is admin → ok (admin moderation)
  * `Some(_)` otherwise → 403 (unchanged)
  * `None` and caller is admin → ok (NEW — operator can curate)
  * `None` otherwise → 403 (was: ok — the bug)
