Adds a draft status for SentEmail and a new admin action (send_email) that transitions draft/pending/failed emails to pending and queues them via Celery, so admins can compose an email now and manually trigger sending later.

• SentEmailAdmin.send_email is registered in actions as a plain method with no allowed_permissions, so Django exposes it to any staff user with just view_sentemail permission — it doesn't require change permission. That's inconsistent with this same admin explicitly disabling has_add_permission/has_change_permission to keep SentEmail records read-only; the action bypasses that intent since it mutates status and triggers real outbound email sends. Consider gating it with action.allowed_permissions = ("change",) (or a custom permission check), or if has_change_permission staying False is intentional, use a different permission name to distinguish "can send" from "can edit".
• admins.py:send_email calls self.message_user(request, f"Emails queued for sending: {len(affected_emails_ids)}") before _submit_emails_for_sending runs (it's registered via transaction.on_commit), and that helper swallows any .delay() exception per email (logging only). If enqueueing fails for one or more emails, the admin still sees "Emails queued for sending: N" with no indication that some of those emails are now stuck in pending with no task actually queued.
