Paul Nothaft 7c9baff751 fix(upload): scope category ids, stop temp-file leaks, split the video cap
Four related fixes on the admin upload/photo path.

B5 -- PATCH /photos/:photoId and POST /photos/bulk-update took any
parseInt(...) > 0 straight into the update with no existence or scope check,
so a photo could be moved into another event's category. The upload route
already validated `event_id = X OR is_global` per #500/#525; extracted that
query as findScopedCategory() and used it on all three routes so the 400 body
is byte-identical. 0/negative/'individual'/'collage'/null still clear without
a lookup, so the clear path costs no extra query.

B9 -- three distinct temp-file leaks, not one. The validator's size branch
never unlinked; the cleanup lived in the final handler, unreachable on any
400; and multer's `destination` callback runs per file and overwrote
req.tempUploadPath, so even the success path only ever removed the last
file's directory. Now: discardUploadedFiles() runs on every 4xx and the 500
(ENOENT tolerated, and files are only dropped when the whole request is being
rejected, so the passing path is untouched); cleanup registered before multer
so it also covers multer's own LIMIT_FILE_SIZE return; one directory per
request.

B8 -- the admin uploader filtered on MIME only, so an oversized file was
uploaded in full before the server's 400. Mirrors UserPhotoUpload's existing
per-file toast-and-drop.

C4 -- general_max_file_size_mb was a single cap for photos and videos, so the
50MB default meant admins could not upload ordinary video without also
raising the photo limit. Adds general_max_video_size_mb (default 500MB,
clamped by the same 10GB MAX_ALLOWED_FILE_SIZE_MB ceiling, read per request,
60s cache), editable in Settings -> General.

Photo uploads are protected from regressing by keeping multer's type-blind
limit at max(photoCap, videoCap) and moving the per-kind decision into
validateUploadContent, where file.mimetype exists. It 400s with the existing
message shape, so an oversized photo is still rejected with the identical
body it produced when multer did the rejecting.

Known gap: chunked-upload/init still applies the photo cap to video. Making
it video-aware would change an existing assertion that pins a 200MB video
init being rejected under a 1MB general cap. No component calls that path
today and the direction is strict rather than a bypass, so it is left as-is.
Guest video uploads still share the single cap in gallery.js.
