Harden impersonation banner and canImpersonate

[fadymondy]

Fixes

• ImpersonationBanner (XSS): the impersonator's name was put into the HTML without escaping, so a crafted user name could inject script. The name, URL and CSRF token are now escaped.
• ImpersonationBanner (downloads): streamed and file-download responses have no Content-Type, so they counted as HTML, and setContent() threw. Downloads broke while impersonating; these responses now pass through untouched.
• HasRolesAndPermissions::canImpersonate(): threw when the impersonate users permission wasn't seeded. ImpersonateAction calls it for every row, so the users table crashed. It now returns false.

Verification

• vendor/bin/pest: 87 passed (baseline 84), with new ImpersonationHardeningTest.
• pint clean.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change hardens impersonation permission checks and banner injection. Missing permissions return false. Streamed and binary responses bypass injection. Banner values are HTML-escaped. Feature tests cover all three behaviors.

Changes

Impersonation hardening

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Permission and banner hardening src/Concerns/HasRolesAndPermissions.php, src/Http/Middleware/ImpersonationBanner.php, tests/Feature/ImpersonationHardeningTest.php	canImpersonate() uses checkPermissionTo() and returns false when the permission is absent. ImpersonationBanner skips streamed, binary, and non-HTML responses. The impersonator name, stop URL, and CSRF token are escaped before HTML insertion. Feature tests validate these behaviors.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 3df77

Binary downloads are currently protected, but a future regression could break download responses without test coverage. Add the focused passthrough test before merge if practical.
