Simon Willison 3adddad6aa Add parent filter and include_is_private to allowed_resources()
Major improvements to the allowed_resources() API:

1. **parent filter**: Filter results to specific database in SQL, not Python
   - Avoids loading thousands of tables into Python memory
   - Filtering happens efficiently in SQLite

2. **include_is_private flag**: Detect private resources in single SQL query
   - Compares actor permissions vs anonymous permissions in SQL
   - LEFT JOIN between actor_allowed and anon_allowed CTEs
   - Returns is_private column: 1 if anonymous blocked, 0 otherwise
   - No individual check_visibility() calls needed

3. **Resource.private property**: Safe access with clear error messages
   - Raises AttributeError if accessed without include_is_private=True
   - Prevents accidental misuse of the property

4. **Database view optimization**: Use new API to eliminate redundant checks
   - Single bulk query replaces N individual permission checks
   - Private flag computed in SQL, not via check_visibility() calls
   - Views filtered from allowed_dict instead of checking db.view_names()

All permission filtering now happens in SQLite where it belongs, with
minimal data transferred to Python.
