fix(chart): keep query-context updates bound to the chart's datasource

On the query-context-only update path UpdateChartCommand intentionally
skips the ownership check so report and alert workers can refresh a
chart's cached payload. Validate that the submitted query context still
targets the chart's own datasource (id and type) before saving, so a
cached payload cannot be repointed at an unrelated datasource. Payloads
without a parseable datasource fall back to the chart's datasource at
execution time and are left unchanged.

-
-On MySQL with the default case-insensitive collation, five Superset views that
-declare ``class_permission_name = "security"`` (lowercase) cause FAB to look up
-or insert a view-menu entry named ``"security"``.  MySQL's case-insensitive
-``UNIQUE`` constraint means the lookup finds an existing ``"Security"`` row and
-uses it, OR a fresh install stores ``"security"`` because that view is
-registered before the FAB built-in views register ``"Security"``.
-
-Python string comparisons in ``sync_role_definitions`` and the menu-hiding
-logic are case-sensitive, so an all-lowercase ``"security"`` row breaks the
-Security menu for MySQL (and MariaDB) deployments.
-
-This migration normalises the row:
-* If only the lowercase ``"security"`` row exists: rename it to ``"Security"``.
-* If both rows exist (SQLite / PostgreSQL fresh-install with the old code):
-  reassign every ``ab_permission_view`` from the lowercase row to the
-  correctly-cased row, then delete the duplicate.
