Allow toggling room privacy after creation (#48)

is_private was previously only settable at room creation. RoomUpdate now
accepts it, update_room() applies it, and PATCH /api/rooms/{id} allows a
site admin to make the change even for a room they haven't joined (in
addition to the existing room owner/admin gate) -- require_room_role
normally 403s a non-member before the role check ever runs, so this is a
deliberate bypass for site admins specifically.

Flipping the flag has no effect on existing members either direction
(confirmed is_private is only ever checked at self-serve join time) --
it purely controls Browse Rooms visibility and future self-joins.

Frontend: RoomInfoPanel's "Room settings" section is now visible to room
owner, room admin, or site admin (was owner-only), with a privacy toggle
reusing NewRoomModal's existing toggle-switch UI. "Delete room" stays
owner-only, now nested inside that wider section rather than gating the
whole thing.
