Chats/users with "restrict saving content" enabled hid the Copy option for every message, including ones the user authored themselves. Since the author already knows their own text, the only effect was pushing users toward an inconsistent workaround: opening Edit on the message and copying the text out of the input field, which was never subject to the same restriction. Add an isOutOwner() exception to the Copy gating in the single-message long-press menu and the multi-select toolbar/action bar, so a message's author can copy their own text/caption directly. Forwarding and media saving remain fully restricted for everyone, and Copy is still hidden for messages authored by others.
