#7610: Use bp_user_can for some group-related permissions.

-------------------------+-----------------------------
 In many places in the groups component, we're applying checks to determine
 if a user can do something. These checks can be fairly complicated and are
 duplicated wherever they are needed. I'd like to move to a more
 centralized approach using `bp_user_can()` when possible. In addition to
 standardizing the permission checks, this will add a filter point that
 devs can use.

 This also helps lay the groundwork for future changes making group
 statuses more flexible.

 Thanks for your feedback!
