feat: forum topics CRUD + manage_topics admin right
Adds three new MCP tools for forum topic management: - create_forum_topic — create a topic in a forum-enabled supergroup - edit_forum_topic — edit/close/reopen/hide a topic - delete_forum_topic — clear a topic's history (effectively delete) Adds `manage_topics` to ChatAdminRights for promote_admin, demote_admin, and edit_admin_rights so bots can be granted topic-management privileges (without this, you can promote a bot to admin but it still can't create or edit topics). Also fixes a latent bug in `list_topics`: it was calling `functions.channels.GetForumTopicsRequest` which doesn't exist in current Telethon — the actual MTProto method lives under `functions.messages.GetForumTopicsRequest` (verified on Telethon 1.42). Same correction applied across all forum-topic methods. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
