[Due for payment 2026-09-18] Allow admins to attach receipts to approved expenses

[dukenv0307]

Problem

Admins can attach a receipt to an expense while it's in Draft or Outstanding, but not once the report is Approved. If a receipt is missing on an approved expense, there's no way to add it.

Solution

Allow admins to attach receipts to approved expenses

Extend the existing "attach receipt" ability to the Approved state. Scope:

1. Admins only — this change does not extend anything for submitters or approvers.
2. Admins can replace an already-uploaded receipt (same as the behavior available before approval).
3. Admins can replace an eReceipt (same as the behavior available before approval).
