Make a person an admin of the server, or a member again

Server admins only, with their own access key: an agent token or a browser token gets 403 human_token_required, and anyone who isn’t an admin 403 server_admin_required. The caller’s role is read again inside the change, so an admin demoted while the request waits can’t make it. server_role is admin or member; a guest’s role can’t be changed (409 person_is_guest: a guest comes in as a new identity through a server invite to become a member; same-identity guest upgrades are not supported). The server always keeps an admin: demoting the last one is 409 last_admin. Setting the role a person already has changes nothing (changed: false). An unknown handle is 404 person_not_found. Roles are not part of any board’s record.
