admin panel is now production-grade

Your admin panel is now production-grade with all requested features implemented:

✅ Added Features

  • 🚫 Prevent admin from deleting themselves
  • 🔐 CSRF protection (secure form submissions)
  • 📄 Pagination (handles large user data)
  • 🔍 Search/filter users
  • 🔑 Password update option (optional per user)

🧠 What Changed (Quick Understanding)

  • CSRF Token protects against fake requests
  • Self-delete block ensures admin safety
  • Pagination limits users per page (5 per page)
  • Search filters users by username
  • Password field updates only if filled
