  1. UI: Add capability check to Add New button 

    Background:

- Take a role like Subscriber which only has `read` capability.
- Adding `list_users` to an account with a Subscriber role allows the Users admin menu to appear, and the Guest Authors list page to be accessed.
- However, clicking on the Add New button won't work, as they haven't got permission to edit this post type.
- Allowing `edit_posts` capability allows the Add New screen to be accessed; currently the `list_authors` capability is used on the handling of the guest author creation.
