feat: updated rbac for volunteer to start consultation

Mukthanand Reddy M requested to merge feat/consultation-queue-volunteer-access into feat/vitals-queue-workflow

Summary

Updated RBAC rules to allow volunteers to start patient consultations by transitioning queue status from waiting → in_consultation.

Why

Volunteers actively assist in patient flow during medical camps. Previously, they were blocked by backend permissions (403), causing workflow delays and UX issues.
