feat: add has_course_author_access to CourseHomeMetadataView response [BB-9082]
Description
Adds has_course_author_access boolean to CourseHomeMetadataView. Currently it's used to control visibility of the "View as Staff" button here: https://github.com/openedx/frontend-app-learning/pull/1436
Testing
Open any unit in frontend-app-learning, open Network tab in your browser console, and search for meta there. There will be a single request, and its JSON response should contain has_course_author_access key. It should be False for all users that don't have access to Studio, especially those having the "Limited Staff" course team role.
Thanks for the pull request, @0x29a!

Our goal is to get community contributions seen and reviewed as efficiently as possible.
However, the amount of time that it takes to review and merge a PR can vary significantly based on factors such as:
- The size and impact of the changes that it introduces
- The need for product review
- Maintenance status of the parent repository
:bulb: As a result it may take up to several weeks or months to complete a review and merge your PR.
OSPR management note: User-facing change, so will likely need product approval before we can move forward with engineering review and merge.
Marking as blocked for now.
