Describe the feature/enhancement

When trying to add a podcast via the 'Search' interface in a library with media type 'Podcast', I get an "Internal server error" popup in the web interface and an error shows up in the logs:

[2022-04-25T16:54:17.828Z] ERROR: [PodcastController] Non-root user attempted to create podcast

It would be nice if there were a permission toggle per account in the user management interface to allow non-root accounts to add new podcasts in this way.

Is it possible to give this ability to non-admin users? My use case would be that I want to let my friends add podcasts, but not give them the ability to add users (which can be used to circumvent the delete permissions).

@advplyr Ping on this if possible. Not sure why regular users can't upload these, since it doesn't seem that different from uploading audibooks/podcasts manually

There is an issue for this #1258
I think this will be a new permission for "Manage Podcasts" that allows for adding new podcasts, downloading episodes and updating podcasts/episodes.
