Describe the need

There is no Terraform resource to manage the enterprise-level private repository forking policy. This policy controls whether and where members can fork private and internal repositories within a GitHub Enterprise.

The GitHub GraphQL API already supports this via the updateEnterpriseAllowPrivateRepositoryForkingSetting mutation, which accepts:

• settingValue: ENABLED, DISABLED, or NO_POLICY
• policyValue: controls fork destinations (SAME_ORGANIZATION, ENTERPRISE_ORGANIZATIONS_USER_ACCOUNTS, EVERYWHERE, etc.)

The shurcooL/githubv4 Go client already has full type support for this mutation and its enums.

This is particularly important for EMU (Enterprise Managed Users) environments where administrators need to control whether members can fork to their enterprise-managed user accounts.

Relates to #2851 (broader enterprise settings support), #1844 (fork policy reset issue)
