feat(org): add branch-deletion protection + expandable inherited-rule view (#727)

Two related additions:

1. Branch deletion as an org-level ability. OrgProtectedBranch gained
   CanDelete / EnableDeleteAllowlist / DeleteAllowlistTeamIDs (migration 362),
   ToProtectedBranch maps them, and the API (create/edit/response DTOs +
   handlers) exposes enable_delete / enable_delete_allowlist /
   delete_allowlist_teams. The layering merge already combined delete fields, so
   org delete-protection now enforces once ToProtectedBranch populates them.

2. The repo Branch Protection view now renders each inherited org rule as an
   expandable detail (direct push, force-push, branch deletion, merge, required
   approvals, status checks, protected files) with team names resolved, instead
   of three headline badges. Still read-only.

Note: no Go toolchain available locally, so not compiled/gofmt'd/tested here.
Verified by hand: struct-field gofmt alignment, template block nesting balances,
every .Rule field exists on OrgProtectedBranch, and all locale keys referenced
in the template are defined.

 ## [Unreleased]
 
 ### Added
+- Org branch protection: repositories now show the inherited organization rules read-only in their Branch Protection settings, with an expandable detail (direct push, force-push, branch deletion, merge restrictions, required approvals, status checks, protected files, and whitelisted teams) — like GitHub surfaces org rulesets in a repo (#727)
+- Org branch protection: org-level rules can now also protect against branch deletion (`enable_delete` + delete allowlist teams), mirroring the per-repo delete allowlist (#727)
 - Code security scanner: pattern-based detection of SQL injection, XSS, command injection, path traversal, insecure deserialization, hardcoded credentials, and weak cryptography across Go/PHP/Python/JS/TS (#552)
 - Cascade merge: auto-create PRs to downstream branches after merge with configurable rules per repo (#460)
 - Issue status presets: 4 built-in templates (default, software-development, support-tickets, bug-tracking) with API + web UI (#507)

 - Cherry-pick upstream v1.26.4: walk git log context error handling — regression fix (#38185)
 
 ### Fixed
+- Org-level branch protection now **layers** with per-repo rules instead of being ignored whenever a repo rule exists. When both an org rule and a repo rule match a branch, the effective rule is the most-restrictive (fail-closed) combination — the org rule is a mandatory floor a repo cannot weaken: allow flags AND'd, gate/require/block flags OR'd, required approvals max'd, status checks and protected-file patterns unioned, whitelists intersected. Previously a repo rule shadowed the org rule entirely at the enforcement choke point (`GetFirstMatchProtectedBranchRule`), letting a repo opt out of org protection (#727)
+- Org Teams page: list now renders — the handler wrote `ctx.Data["OrgListTeams"]` but the template reads `.Teams`, so the page showed header/nav but no teams (#720)
+- Issue type: now editable after creation for users with issue write permission — the sidebar gated editing on a `FieldEditFlags` data key that was never populated (always read-only); now uses `HasIssuesOrPullsWritePermission` like the priority field (#721)
+- Admin config form: radio inputs (e.g. instance landing page Mode) no longer throw "Unsupported config form value mapping", which had aborted all JS init on the admin settings page
+- PR check branch policy: allow `fix/*` → `main` and `patch/*` → `main` to match documented policy (was rejecting fix/patch PRs to main)
+- PR check platform detection: guard for missing `.mokogitea/manifest.xml` so the Validate PR job no longer aborts under `set -e` (manifest replaced by metadata API)
+- Remove dangling `mcp-mokogitea-api` submodule gitlink (no `.gitmodules` entry) that broke `submodule update --init` at checkout, failing all PR build/release jobs; ignore the local clone path
+- PR RC Release workflow: no-op cleanly when `updates.xml` is absent (generic repos) instead of aborting the "Determine RC version" step under `set -e`
 - PR check: platform detection now queries metadata API instead of removed manifest.xml
 - Cherry-pick upstream v1.26.2: handle empty pull request files view to allow reviews (#37783)
 - Cherry-pick upstream v1.26.2: fix "run as root" check with snap container detection (#37622)
