feat(design-systems): central prose — guidance on the system, rationale on tokens
Last piece of the architecture in #2296. The operator: "the prose doesn't have
to live as one offs, there's a central system for managing it."

Two fields, both free-form:

  design_systems.guidance   the narrative a token table cannot hold — aesthetic,
                            voice and tone, what is deliberately out of scope.
  design_tokens.rationale   WHY a token is this value, which is a different
                            question from `purpose` (what it is FOR). "Success
                            equals Moss, aligned by design" is a rationale;
                            "page bg, deepest surface" is a purpose. Rules carry
                            the first routinely and a token row had nowhere to
                            put it.

Free-form rather than a column per category, deliberately. A schema with
`voice`, `aesthetic` and `scope` columns would bake one rulebook's table of
contents into every install (rule #115), leaving the next install three empty
columns and nowhere for what it actually cares about. Both nullable: a design
system with no prose at all is complete, not a draft.

`rationale` cascades like `purpose` — deepest non-empty wins — so an app
overriding a colour keeps the family's reasoning rather than blanking it. Same
argument as `supersedes`: the override was about the value, not the meaning.

In the generated sheet the inline comment prefers `purpose` and falls back to
`rationale`, so a token carrying only the why still says something instead of
rendering bare.

"""Design system + token REST endpoints (milestone #254 step 4).
Wraps `services/design_systems.py`, which owns the ACL and the cycle guard.
Design systems are owner-scoped top-level records rather than project-scoped
ones, so these do NOT nest under `/api/projects/` — `routes/rulebooks.py` is the
closer shape.
Two failures this layer has to keep apart, which is why the service raises for
one and returns None for the other:
- `DesignSystemCycle` -> 400 with its message. "That parent already inherits
from this system" is a correctable mistake and the caller needs to be told
which one they made.
- None -> 404, covering both "no such system" and "not yours". Conflating
those two IS the intent: distinguishing them would confirm the existence of
records the caller may not see.
