Sellable product

This capability is granted by an API key scoped to the `` product (product face). See the product reference below.

Shared GENERIC CMS engine. Threaded article comments with moderation + a store-authoritative collaborative-edit lock/session engine (multi-worker coherent — the correctness fix over the platform's per-process lock dict) + a user-submission submit/review FSM. All state is keyed by a caller-supplied (article_id, user_id) and org-scoped (organization_id, I6); the engine NEVER fetches or owns the per-vertical content documents (I4/I5 — those stay platform domain).
