Add member

Admin-only. Sends a pending invite the target must accept — every successful add returns outcome=invited regardless of contact status (consent-gated, see plan §3.5). Strangers (non-contacts) under a contacts_only policy are rejected with INBOX_RESTRICTED. Already-active members return outcome=already_member as a no-op.
