Prevent sole admin from deleting their account

Without this guard, the last admin in the system could delete their own
account, making the application unmanageable. This adds a model method
`User#sole_admin?`, a controller guard in `RegistrationsController#destroy`,
and disables the delete button in the profile edit view when the current
user is the only remaining admin.
