fix: add authorization checks and improve test coverage

API Spec Compliance Fixes:
- Add authorization checks for article update/delete (403 if not author)
- Add authorization checks for comment delete (403 if not author)
- Change comment creation to return 201 Created instead of 200 OK
- Maintain DELETE idempotency (200 OK even if resource doesn't exist)
- Add FindOneComment helper function for comment authorization

Test Coverage Improvements:
- articles: 92.1% → 93.4% (+1.3%)
  - Added tests for unauthorized update/delete attempts
  - Added test for unauthorized comment deletion
- common: 85.7% → 87.1% (+1.4%)
  - Added tests for database directory creation paths
  - Added test for current directory database creation

Security Enhancements:
- Prevent non-authors from modifying/deleting articles
- Prevent non-authors from deleting comments
- Return proper 403 Forbidden status for authorization failures

All tests passing (articles, common, users)
