discover ability

enabled_roles patch

When migrations fail, the lack of an :enabled_roles card was causing highly problematic failures. This tiny patch release fixes that.

the art of redirection

• use 303 (not 302) after successful POST/PUT/PASTE/DELETE requests
• minor query optimizations
• fix comment bug that left comment lingering in comment.

in guide we trust

This point release adds support for new *guide rules, which let users create guides that appear to the right of text when editing in full ("bridge") view.

It also upgrades subcard error handling to make sure, eg, validation issues in subcards properly percolate up to act cards.
