fix: apply sort direction in gallery view and respect show_feedback_to_guests (#302, #303)

- Gallery now respects the configured sort direction (asc/desc) from
  default_photo_sort setting instead of using hard-coded directions
- Photos endpoint zeroes out feedback fields (like_count, favorite_count,
  average_rating, comment_count, has_feedback) when show_feedback_to_guests
  is disabled, while still showing data to admin/client users
