feat: declare module permissions

Establishes the one canonical PermissionDeclaration contract
(packages/contracts/src/authorization.ts) — id/baseline/description,
strict, unknown-property-rejecting — consumed by both Core's
authorization registry and module manifests, replacing Core's
previously separate interface.

Bumps the canonical module manifest to manifestVersion 3: permissions
become complete declarations instead of bare identifier strings, with
manifest-owned namespace and duplicate-id enforcement. Version 2 and
bare string-array permissions are rejected outright; there is no
compatibility adapter.

Adds composePlatformPermissionRegistry (core/src/modules/permissions.ts),
a pure, synchronous composer that builds one platform permission
registry from Core's own declarations plus every already-discovered
module's, in deterministic order, reusing createPermissionRegistry
and rejecting any module-contributed permission in the reserved
core.* namespace. core/src/authorization remains independent of
core/src/modules; only the module integration layer depends on
authorization.

Updates the module template, module-development docs, authorization
docs, and existing manifest fixtures for manifestVersion 3. Does not
wire the combined registry into apps/api — that is pass 2.

/**
* A registered permission declaration: the trusted pairing of a permission identifier with its

* Core's registry consumes the one shared `PermissionDeclaration` shape
* (`packages/contracts/src/authorization.ts`) rather than declaring its own interface — a module
* manifest's `permissions` array parses into the exact same type, so a declaration a module ships
* and a declaration Core registers are provably interchangeable. Re-exported here so existing
* `@ekklesia/core/authorization` consumers keep importing it from this package.
