tegwick 574bb11db6 feat(example): add supply-chain-vsm composition demo (S3.5)

Demonstrates infospace composition: the Wealth of Nations infospace is
used as a discipline, applying Smith's economic framework as a lens to
analyse modern supply chain management concepts.

New example: examples/supply-chain-vsm/
- infospace.yaml binding WoN as discipline (../infospace-with-history)
- 3 source documents: coordination mechanisms, capital & inventory,
  market structure (~400 words each, original content)
- supply-chain-entity-schema-v1.0.md with WoN Concept required section
- won-mapping-schema-v1.0.md with Conceptual Continuity rating
- artifacts/won-reference/core-entities.md — 12 curated WoN entities
  for injection as discipline context
- 8 hand-crafted entity files demonstrating LLM output format
- 3 mapping files with full rationale and VSM inheritance chains
- Viable: YES (5/5 thresholds)

Key mappings demonstrated:
  Demand Signal          → Effectual Demand        (Strong, S2)
  Vendor-Managed Inventory → Division of Labour    (Strong, S1/S2)
  Just-in-Time Inventory → Circulating Capital     (Strong, S1/S3)
  Bullwhip Effect        → Natural Price           (Moderate, S2)
  Platform Intermediary  → Merchant Capital        (Strong, S2/S4)
  Monopsony Power        → Combination of Masters  (Strong, S3*)

Platform fix: entity_parser.py now recognises ## Supply Chain Domain
as a domain alias for ## Economic Domain, enabling composed infospaces
to use their own domain section name.

Tutorial §13 rewritten with real commands, real output, and the full
mapping table from the demo.

WoN Mapping Schema v1.0

Every mapping from a supply chain entity to a Wealth of Nations concept must contain the following sections.

Required Sections

H1 Heading

Format: Supply Chain Entity → WoN Entity

Example: # Bullwhip Effect → Natural Price as Central Price

Supply Chain Entity

The supply chain entity being mapped (title case name).

WoN Entity

The Wealth of Nations entity being mapped to. Must be an entity that exists in the WoN infospace (see artifacts/won-reference/core-entities.md for the curated reference set).

Mapping Rationale

Minimum 40 words. Explain why this supply chain concept corresponds to this WoN concept. Ground the mapping in both the supply chain definition and Smith's original analysis. Do not rely on surface-level name similarity.

Conceptual Continuity

One of: Strong, Moderate, Weak

Strong: The modern concept directly instantiates the WoN concept — same mechanism, different technology or scale
Moderate: The modern concept resembles the WoN concept in structure but differs in important ways
Weak: The mapping is analogical — useful for analysis but not a direct correspondence

VSM Inheritance

Because the WoN entity is already mapped to a VSM system in the WoN infospace, the supply chain entity inherits a VSM position by transitivity. State: [Supply Chain Entity] inherits [VSM System] via [WoN Entity]

Quality Metrics

Rationale Rigour (1–5): Is the mapping justified by substantive analysis, not just surface similarity?
Continuity Calibration (1–5): Is the declared strength consistent with the rationale?
VSM Coherence (1–5): Does the inherited VSM assignment make sense for the supply chain entity?
