Dave Kempe 89129a54b5 fix(connections): hide subfolders the user cannot access
Closes #147.

ab_list_subfolders checked access to the parent folder but then returned
every subfolder unfiltered, so a user who could open a parent saw all of
its children regardless of per-child group ACLs - clicking one they
weren't entitled to gave "no access". (Top-level folders were already
filtered; this was the subfolder gap.)

Subfolders are now filtered per child. A folder is shown if the user can
access it directly OR can access any descendant of it, so a deeper grant
(child with its own allowed_groups and inherit_from_parent=false under a
denied folder) is never orphaned out of the tree. Admins still see all.

New folder_or_descendant_accessible helper does the recursive (boxed
async) OR over resolve_folder_access, short-circuiting on the first
accessible folder. No Vault mock harness exists to unit-test the
Vault-backed path; verified via build + the logic being a thin recursive
wrapper over the already-shipping resolve_folder_access.

docs/roles-and-access-control.md gains explicit notes that inaccessible
folders are hidden (not shown-then-denied) at every level, the
descendant-visibility rule, and how inheritance interacts.
