docs(multi-user): server-wide settings writes are admin-only

api-reference gains a Settings section (GET/PUT /api/settings, the model
config, the case order and PUT /api/config, with the 403 FORBIDDEN a non-admin
gets in multi-user mode). The Multi-User Mode wiki page explains what a regular
user's App Settings save does now, Settings-Reference links it, the plan's
Settings row is marked implemented, and CLAUDE.md notes the gate for the
Multi-user paragraph and for anyone adding a settings write.

| Screenshots `/api/screenshots` (deprecated) | Deprecated: removed in a later MAJOR, so no per-user subdir is planned; the replacement `POST /api/sessions/:id/paste-image` is already session-scoped. Former plan: per-user subdir `~/.codeman/screenshots/<username>/` in multi-user mode. Note: `GET /:name` deliberately rejects `/` in names as traversal, so derive the subdir server-side from `req.authUser` and keep client-visible names flat |
| Attachments | Already session-scoped; inherits the session owner check. `attachmentConfineToWorkspace` is a global, default-OFF setting today: in multi-user mode it is FORCED ON for non-admins regardless of the setting (their attachments must resolve inside their own space); the setting keeps meaning what it means for admins |

Actual contents to filter (verified): `sessions`, `scheduledRuns`, `respawnStatus`, `subagents`, `workflowRuns`, `planUsage` (host-plan telemetry: admin-only); `globalStats` stays coarse-global.
