Create a toggle button for multi and single select fields to not allow new select options to be added by an Editor that creates records.

We would like to allow Editors the ability to add records but not add rogue field options, which is hurting our data that we want to track. We do not want to grant them any higher access to be a Collaborator.

Current state, we are spending a lot of time to continually re-train the users to not add in rogue select options.

This toggle button option should carry through the CSV Import Extension so no button appears for users to try and add in missing options.

When doing data entry, editors are already prohibited from adding new options in single-select fields and multi-select fields. Only creators are allowed to add those options.

The problem is that Airtable doesn’t respect those same privileges when importing data into Airtable.
