feat(admin): implement user management and moderation dashboard

[arnabnandy7]

Overview

Introduces a dedicated Admin Console to manage user accounts, permissions, and security moderation. The feature integrates Better Auth's administrative capabilities with Drizzle ORM to enable user discovery, role transitions, account blocking/unblocking, session revocations, and automated digest suppression for restricted users.

Key Highlights

• Database & Schema Updates:

  • Adds role, banned, ban_reason, and ban_expires to user, and impersonated_by to session via migration 0014_user_moderation.sql.
  • Automatically synchronizes existing administrator memberships to the admin role while maintaining backwards compatibility with the legacy admin table.

• Authentication & Authorization:

  • Registers Better Auth's server admin() plugin and client adminClient() plugin.
  • Implements server-side guard requireAdmin for page routes and administrative endpoints.
  • Suppresses automated cron delivery (such as weekly digests) for blocked accounts.

• Admin User Interface:

  • Adds /admin route with server-side protection.
  • Provides a searchable, filterable, and paginated User Management directory with role badges and active/blocked statuses.
  • Introduces a confirmation modal supporting customizable ban reasons and expiration windows.
  • Integrates administrative email delivery testing into a unified dashboard layout.
  • Surface an Admin Console entry point in navigation for authorized administrators.

  • Added unit and component coverage for admin server guards, client wrappers, table interactions, dialog actions, and navigation triggers (tests/features/admin/).
