Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
Static embedding requires admin role. Some customers would like some of their users to do static embedding without granting them admin permissions.
**Describe the solution you'd like**
Have a specific permission that enables folks to embed. This is similar to #4333, which is about the ability of doing public sharing without being an admin.
**Describe alternatives you've considered**
* Granting every user that needs to do signed embedding admin permissions
* Forking Metabase

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing how static or signed embedding currently checks the admin role, then compare the requested permission with the public-sharing work referenced in #4333. Done means non-admin users with the specific permission can perform signed embedding without granting them admin access.
