GitHub permissions, organizations, and access errors

Org-owned repositories often need explicit GitHub App approvals; personal repos need fewer steps.

Checklist

Confirm the GitHub App is authorized for your user or organization.

Ensure the token includes scopes required to read refs, create blobs/trees, and open pull requests when using the PR workflow.

Verify the target repository still exists and that DriftLess points at the correct owner/name pair after any transfer.
