feat(hub): let a hub admin disable public groups instance-wide
A new General tab in Administration carries one switch, allow_public_groups,
stored in a hub_settings key/value table (runtime-editable, unlike hub.toml).
Default is on; an absent row means on, so an upgrade changes nothing.
Enforcement is server-side on every hub-mediated path, not just the SPA:
- create_group refuses visibility=public (403), staff included
- list_public_groups the directory returns nothing (local + federated)
- join_group open-joining a public group is refused
- group_online_nodes a non-member of a public group is handed no node
- signaling.webrtc_offer drops the "node hosts an open group" fallback
- federation.export_directory advertises nothing to peer hubs
The switch is read live, so flipping it back restores every path. Existing
members of a group that predates the switch keep their membership row and
their access — this is plan A, not a purge. GET /v1/hub/info exposes the
flag (unauthenticated) so the create-group form and the sidebar's "Public
groups" link render correctly.
Also in the admin Groups tab: a Revoke action beside Suspend. Suspend is the
reversible hub flag; Revoke calls POST /v1/admin/revoke, which sets
status=revoked and broadcasts a signed revocation every node enforces
(denylist + dropped live sessions). It is confirm-guarded and names the group.
And a message fix the revoke work surfaced: group_online_nodes, join_group and
webrtc_offer answered "Group is suspended" for any non-active status. They now
report the real state, so a member of a revoked group is told "Group is
revoked" rather than something reversible-sounding.
Tests: test_public_groups_toggle.py (10) covers the switch end to end and the
five enforcement paths; test_revocation.py gains the status-message assertion.
