Subject: [PATCH] Hide the controls a delegate cannot use, surface by surface

Every page a switch can reach now renders the controls the grant covers and
none of the others. Readings, lab results and illness entries keep their add
path at WRITE and lose edit, delete and selection at both levels. Mood,
screeners, cycle days, checkup reminders and the document vault lose every
mutation control at both levels, because no grant admits those verbs and the
routes behind them refuse a switched session outright.

Absent, not disabled, throughout. The banner already says whose record this
is, so no chip repeats it beside each missing button; the one exception is
the measurements empty state, where somebody who may add will look for the
edit control beside the row they just entered, and one muted line says where
the limit is.

Two dead ends went with them: the custom-metric section on the measurements
page linked every row into a route the shell turns a delegate away from, and
the wrench glyphs point at settings pages sharing does not cover.
