Read a single user in the caller's agency hierarchy.
Fetch one user by Better Auth id. The id MUST belong to the caller's agency hierarchy (self-read, direct reports, or nested reports up to 5 levels deep). Any id outside the hierarchy - including platform roles (super_admin, admin) - returns 404 user_not_found. We NEVER return 403 to avoid confirming that a given id exists in another agency (Security Non-Negotiable #8).
