WHY IT NEEDS A POLICY

Why tdarr_public_auth_login needs a policy

Logging in creates an authenticated session, which is a state-modifying operation (Write). It is not purely a read operation since it establishes/modifies session state on the server. It is not Destructive or Financial. Severity is medium because misuse could allow unauthorized access to the Tdarr transcoding system, potentially enabling more severe follow-on actions.
