Returns the bootstrap payload the portal SPA needs — current user, permissions, feature flags, branding and route configuration — together with the sidebar menu groups.
The rest block is deliberately stripped, because the client already holds its own REST configuration. Content varies by caller: a signed-out visitor gets a much smaller payload than a community admin.
