feat(acl): unify the retrieval scopes; mark shared rows in Knowledge browse
Closes #2092 and the Knowledge-browse provenance gap.

The two halves of a hybrid search disagreed: the keyword half honoured shares
while the semantic half was pinned to NoteEmbedding.user_id, so a shared record
was findable by wording and invisible by meaning — the case a semantic search
exists to serve. semantic_search_notes now scopes on Note via a `scope`
parameter, and each of its five callers declares which kind of act it is:

  mcp/tools/search.py     read    the agent asked
  routes/search.py        read    the user typed it
  knowledge.py (semantic) read    matches the keyword half beside it
  plugin_context.py       browse  nobody asked; never a one-to-one share
  dedup.py                own     a verdict that blocks a write must not hinge
                                  on another person's notes

That last one is the reason this isn't a single global widening: the dedup gate
returns "update the existing one instead", so matching a stranger's record would
refuse a legitimate create and point at something the caller can't edit. Scope
defaults to "own" so a caller that forgets is wrong in the safe direction, and an
unknown scope raises rather than falling back — a typo there would be a
data-exposure bug.

Auto-inject keeps the browse scope, which still admits a collaborator's note via
a shared project. Its menu line is the only provenance an agent sees, so a
foreign hit now reads: #12 "Title" (0.71) - shared by alex, treat as a
suggestion. MCP and REST search results carry shared/owner too.

Knowledge browse: the feed hydrates cards from /api/knowledge/batch rather than
the list route, so both paths label rows now, and KnowledgeView shows "by
<owner>" on records the viewer doesn't own.

"""The two ACL predicates behind list queries.
`get_note_permission` answers "may I read THIS note?" one row at a time, which a
list query can't use. These express the same resolution as set membership. They
are pure SQL builders — group membership is a subquery rather than a fetched
list, so they need no session and callers' unit tests need not know they exist.
Two scopes, deliberately different (decision note 2094):
readable_* — everything the ACL permits, for explicit acts (a typed search, a
fetch by id).
browsable_* — owner + project access only, for passive surfaces (browse lists,
facet counts, the process→skill manifest).
Assertions compile each clause to SQL and inspect its shape.
