Media Picker: Present root nodes for users with more than one media root node assigned (closes #20967)

[AndyButland]

Prerequisites

• I have added steps to test this contribution in the description below

Fixes: #20967

Description

This PR fixes an issue with the following setup:

• A user with more than one media root node assigned (either directly on the user account, or from being part of two groups that each have a different media root node assigned).
• Opening a media picker on a document would not present any nodes to pick from

It's reported as a regression but:

• I couldn't replicate the reported problem with a single media root node
• Looking at the code history, it seems this has been incorrect for a while in returning an empty collection.

Testing

Follow steps in description above and verify the presentation and selection of items in the media picker.

Pull request overview

This PR fixes issue #20967 where users with multiple media root nodes (assigned either directly or through user group memberships) could not see any nodes in the media picker. Previously, the GetPagedChildren endpoint returned an empty result when queried at root level for users with custom start nodes; it now correctly returns the user's start nodes as entities.

Key Changes

• Modified the root-level entity retrieval logic to fetch and return actual entities for users with multiple start nodes instead of returning an empty collection
• Refactored duplicate entity mapping logic into a reusable local function MapEntityBasic, which also fixed a bug where culture was set twice in the mapping context

Nice work. Any idea when this will roll out?

The 13,13 release candidate is out now if you would like to update to that (and hopefully confirm the issue is resolved). Final release in a couple of weeks.
