Reload-metadata-from-disk button on the book detail page

If you edit a book's metadata in an external tool (grimmory, Calibre desktop, sigil) and want the changes to show up in Calibre-Web-NextGen without a full library re-ingest, there's now a Refresh button next to Edit Metadata on the book detail page. Click it and the catalog re-reads the on-disk EPUB and updates title, comments, publisher, pubdate, and languages. The button is visible to users with the edit role.

This replaces the manual curl -X POST /admin/book/<id>/reload_metadata workflow that was the only way to use the endpoint (shipped in v4.0.110) until now.

Thanks @yodatak for the original request and @magdalar for confirming the same blocked workflow from a different angle.
