Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Describe the solution you'd like
With the guild feature string HIDE_INACCESSIBLE_CHANNELS enabled, guild owners should be able to suppress metadata about channels that cannot be seen by certain members. More particularly, when this feature is enabled, a member who cannot access a channel should not be able to see that channel's metadata.
Describe alternatives you've considered
none
Additional context
discord.com already has this for guild channels. This is just extending them to all guild channels.

Research direction
Start by locating handling for the guild feature string HIDE_INACCESSIBLE_CHANNELS and the code paths that expose guild channel metadata. Trace how channel access is checked for members, then identify all guild channel metadata responses that need the same behavior. Done means inaccessible channels no longer reveal metadata when the feature is enabled, while accessible channels remain visible.
