[Evergreen-catalogers] 3.8 UPDATE_COPY permission and system wide shared shelving locations

[Elaine Hardy]

I am not seeing this in 3.7. We have a few legacy PINES owned shelving
locations and I was unable to edit one of them. But, that might be an
artifact of their age since they were migrated in with our initial
migration to Evergreen.
