feat(signpost): content descriptor fields for dates, parents, authors, media and outline
- pact.ContentDescriptor gains Kind and Tools with the ContentKind and ContentTool constants - pact.ContentRecord gains PublishedAt, Parents, Authors and TopHeading; pact.ContentLocale gains Images, Videos and Headings, with the value types ContentRef, ContentPerson, ContentImage, ContentVideo and ContentHeading; every field is optional - TestContentDescriptorFields proves signpost hands them through and that a type setting none of them describes as before - the runnable content example, the pact and signpost READMEs and the menu item types page document the fields

- Boot-time collection in plugin order, then declaration order. Every error is prefixed `signpost:` and fails the boot: an empty key, a key two plugins register (the message names the key and both plugin IDs), a nil `Resolve`, a `DefaultPattern` that is empty or does not start with `/`, a `PatternFrom` that names an unknown type, the type itself or a type that sets `PatternFrom` too, and a host override for an unknown type or one that does not start with `/`.
|
||||
- URL patterns in layers (`signpost.Registry.Pattern`): the item's own override, else the host override of the type, else, for a list type that sets `PatternFrom`, the host override of the record type it lists, else the type's `DefaultPattern`. A host that changes the post URL once therefore also changes the children of every list of posts, unless the list type itself is overridden. An item override is taken only when it is a path (`signpost.ValidItemPattern`): it starts with a single `/` and has no surrounding whitespace or control characters. Any other override, such as a `javascript:` URL or a protocol-relative `//host`, is ignored and the next layer applies.
|
||||
- `signpost.Registry.Resolve` hands the layered pattern to the type's `Resolve` in `pact.MenuItemResolve.Pattern`. The result, `pact.ResolvedMenuItem`, carries the title, URL, modification time, nested items, and the alternates per locale as an ordered `[]pact.MenuItemAlternate`, never a map.

||||
- Content descriptors: a record type that sets `pact.MenuItemType.Content` describes its records to consumers that work on every content type at once. `signpost.Registry.ContentTypes` lists those types, `signpost.Registry.ContentType`, `signpost.Registry.ContentTypeForController` and `signpost.Registry.ContentTypeForModel` find one by key, admin controller ID or the morph type a record event carries (`pact.RecordSaved.Model`), `signpost.Registry.Describe` describes one record and `signpost.Registry.Records` pages through them with the layered pattern. `signpost.Registry.MatchPath` maps a public path to its record: the first exact match in registration order, else the first inexact one (a path that names the record with a segment that does not fit it). `signpost.MatchPattern` is the whole-segment matcher content types read placeholder values with. A descriptor without `Model` or `Describe`, and two types declaring the same `Model` or `Controller`, fail the boot.

A descriptor without `Model` or `Describe`, and two types declaring the same `Model` or `Controller`, fail the boot.

- `signpost.ReferenceOptions` flattens a type's reference tree depth first into dropdown options with a `Depth`, and answers `Applies` false for a type that takes no reference or that no plugin registers.

The descriptor may also say what kind of record the type holds and which MCP tool edits one (`Kind: pact.ContentKindArticle`, `Tools: map[string]string{pact.ContentToolEdit: "acme_update_post"}`), and `Describe` may report the record's `PublishedAt`, `Parents`, `Authors` and `TopHeading`, and per locale its `Images`, `Videos` and `Headings` (see [Content descriptors](../../docs/plugins/menu-item-types.md#content-descriptors)).
