Front-end File fields no longer create PDF previews or audio and video cover art for users who cannot upload to the media library. New filter: scf/upload/generate_previews.

Follow-up cleanup to the upload preview fix.

Submitted relationship values only link back to objects that are valid choices for the field, or that the submitting user can edit. Revisions never link back. New filter: scf/bidirectional/allow_target.

Password-protected posts referenced by Post Object or Relationship fields are only expanded in REST responses for users who can edit them. Block bindings only expand referenced content and user details the viewer can read, and values of password-protected posts stay hidden in the shortcode, block bindings and JSON-LD output until the password is entered.

Add the 6.9.7 upgrade notice, update the release date and version to
6.9.7, set the Stable tag to 6.9.7, and regenerate the code reference.

Share one helper for the password gate across output surfaces, apply it to the REST field output, and let block bindings expand references by front-end readability. Reuse REST controllers for reference checks and simplify the upload preview filter.
