User verification fix & UI polish

🔧 ADMIN USER FIX:
- New script: backend/scripts/verify_admin.py
- guggeryves@hotmail.com now verified + admin + Tycoon
- Can run manually to fix any user issues

🎨 UI POLISH:
- Admin Panel: 'Control Center' → 'Mission Control'
- Admin Panel: 'Blog' tab → 'Briefings' tab
- Hunter voice consistency throughout

The user interface is already professional with:
- Collapsible sidebar with badges
- Quick search (⌘K)
- Notification bell with pulse
- Stat cards with hover effects
- Activity feed and market pulse
- Proper loading states
