feat(admin): notification operations — resend activation, delivery status, RBAC-scoped views

- notification-routes.js: global list (owner/admin only), per-student list (scoped via
  requireStudentRelationshipAccess), resend-activation (mechanically the same as
  regenerate — Phase 5A's token model already guarantees only the latest is ever valid, so one
  action covers both), a dev-only preview route (unconditionally refuses when
  COOKIE_SECURE=1, mirroring student-auth-routes.js's existing dev_reset_token gate).
- NotificationsView.jsx: owner/admin global notification list, paginated, matching
  AuditView.jsx's exact convention.
- StudentsView.jsx: student detail gained a Resend activation control and a Notifications
  history card; Credentials card now explains the automatic-email behavior.
- AdminPortal.jsx: new Notifications nav entry (owner/admin only).
