Feature: Implement private post visibility filtering and test suite (#31)

* fix(topics): hide private topics from non-admins in Recent and Popular views

Ensures that private topics are filtered out globally in sorted topic
queries by introducing a shared filterVisibleTopics helper.

* fix(posts): correctly hide posts from private topics on profile pages

Ensures the post visibility filter fetches topic fields when missing
from post summaries, preventing posts from private topics from being
visible in user profile views.

* fix(topics): use notAllowed helper to block unauthorized access to private topics

Prevent direct access to private topics by prompting user to login with correct privileges.

* fix(topics): expose private and staff flags in getTopicsByTids for list view rendering

Display a "Private to Staff" badge in list views such as Recent, Category, and Profile Topics for staff users.

* test: add test cases for private post visibility and update YAML schema types

Added new test cases to verify visibility rules for private posts.
Updated OpenAPI YAML files to change `private` flag type from string to integer
to align with backend implementation.

* fix: resolved failing linter errors

* fix: removed extraneous test
