Projects are always created at the deployment root, so the "Parent" dropdown
(and populateParentChoices) is gone — the client always POSTs parent:"/".
The Create-new-project dialog now collects members for the four project roles
— admins, document controllers, project team, guests — as simple email lists.
Server-side, each non-empty list becomes a roles:<name> entry plus a base
acl.permissions grant (document_controller→rwcd, project_team→rwc, guest→r);
an explicit advanced acl.permissions entry for the same key still wins.
The new project's .zddc now always records the creator: zf.CreatedBy = creator
email, and the creator is always included in admins: (deduped, first) so they
administer their own project from birth.
Tests: creator recorded + roles/permissions seeded; explicit permission
overrides the role default. Existing create tests still pass (creator-in-admins
is compatible with the explicit-admins-list case).

The /.profile/projects endpoint previously refused anyone without
hasAnyAdminScope. Now it runs the standard decider with ActionCreate
on the parent directory — super-admins still pass via the
IsActiveAdmin bypass branch, and anyone the root .zddc grants `c`
to (e.g. `*@example.com: c`) can self-service a project without
needing an existing admin grant.
Other changes in this commit:
- The new project's .zddc is seeded with the creator's email in
admins: when the request body doesn't supply one — they become
subtree admin of their own project at birth. .zddc edits in
deeper subfolders flow through their authority; strict-ancestor
rule still prevents them from editing /<project>/.zddc itself.
- AccessView gains can_create_project, computed by the same decider
call the endpoint uses — UI and server agree on visibility with
no daylight.
- Profile page splits the subtree-admin template from the create-
project template so the latter mounts on can_create_project,
independent of has_any_admin_scope. Non-admin grantees see the
form; admins keep seeing both.
- Lock-in tests cover the five interesting cases: cascade-granted
user succeeds and becomes subtree admin; stranger gets 404;
elevated super-admin auto-defaults admins; explicit admins list
wins over the default; duplicate-name 409.
