Review fix: omitted picker submissions carry the allowlist forward

Review round 6 (Codex gpt-5.6-terra, MEDIUM): HA replaces entry.options
wholesale, so a submission omitting the picker dropped the allowlist
copy and left only the stale config-flow copy in entry data — a later
database loss would resurrect removed admins. Omitted submissions now
carry the current DB allowlist forward on the options copy. The
legacy-path test updated to assert the carried copy. Suite: 910 passed.
