When adding a user as the category moderator( **not moderator or admin** ), the user wasn’t grant the `staff` permission.

And when they moderate reviews(/review), the insights page will bump `An error occurred: Page Not Found。`

The issue is caused by the `loadIpData()` function, when it tries to get `/admin/users/xxxx.json`, the permission is denied by the backend.

This commit add a logic `!this.currentUser.staff`, to exclude users without staff permissions from requesting this api in frontend, so that there won’t be a dialog here.
