Subject: [PATCH] perf(ai): read the deletion lock with the usage level, not on
 its own

The capability gate's check for an account pending deletion added a
point read of users to every request that resolves AI capabilities, one
statement over the budget on /api/auth/me, the dashboard snapshot and the
batch ingest. The usage-level read already loads the record's row once
per request; it now carries the deletion lock too.
