67962727f6 Fix ten focused correctness items plus sample links from Jesper's 2026-09-15 re-review
Six carried-over threads:
- api-page-least-privilege-write-access fixtures: added the mandatory
  EntityName/EntitySetName properties (AL0485).
- pages-must-not-contain-business-logic fixtures: Sales Line has no
  "Total Amount" field; replaced with the real "Line Amount" (field 103).
- test-feature-scenario-tags.good.al and test-one-when-per-test.good.al:
  CreatePriceHeader leaves a price list in Draft status, which price
  calculation ignores. Added Validate(Status, Active) + Modify before the
  sales line that depends on it. Verified Status field/enum against
  PriceListHeader.Table.al and PriceStatus.Enum.al in the BCApps clone.
- exposed-objects-must-be-in-a-permission-set.md: a published codeunit is
  a SOAP endpoint (SOAP is deprecated), not OData - Page/Query are the
  OData object types. Corrected and pointed new integrations at API
  pages/queries instead.
- al-error-handling-review.md: the log-writes-must-survive-rollback cue
  selected on Session.StartSession, which only appears in the compliant
  fix, never in the anti-pattern - the bad fixture could never be
  worklisted. Recued on the actual risk shape (log insert around a
  failed TryFunction/GetLastError* path, then raise/propagate), with
  StartSession as an explicit compliant discriminator instead.
- page-design-must-match-bc-page-type-conventions.md: the enum value is
  NavigatePage, not Navigate; noted the type list is a selected subset,
  not an exhaustive PageType catalogue (PromptDialog, ConfigurationDialog,
  UserControlHost, XmlPort also exist, out of this article's scope).

Four new correctness gaps:
- release-must-update-app-version.md: "the version is the only identity"
  was backwards - id is the app's stable identity, version identifies a
  release/code-state of it.
- defensive-vs-offensive-code-must-match-blast-radius.good.al: the "low
  blast radius" example had no else branch, so a failed Customer.Get()
  left the field at its prior/default value instead of the explicit
  chosen fallback the article claims to demonstrate. Added the else.
- bcpt-scenarios-must-be-app-specific.good.al: InitTest and both measured
  StartScenario/EndScenario sections were empty/comment-only, so the
  "app-specific" fixture measured no actual work. Filled in a real,
  self-contained header+line creation path.
- upgrade-tag-logic-must-not-nest-deeply.good.al: the flattened version
  dropped both safety conditions the bad fixture had (Discount % = 0,
  nonblank posting group), silently changing behavior instead of just
  removing nesting. Extracted the guarded update into a helper with both
  conditions preserved as early exits.

Also converted this PR's remaining plain-backtick "See sample:" sample
references (16 articles) to the READ-convention markdown-link form,
matching the fix already made on #156/#158.

Rebased onto upstream/main (conflicts in al-ui-review.md, al-style-review.md,
al-upgrade-review.md against merged upstream PRs - all additive, both
sides' worklist cues retained).

0120b874b2 Address Jesper Schulz-Wedde's review on PR #157
- release-must-update-app-version.md: reframe around AppSource's actual
  strict full-version-ordering requirement; scope branching-policy
  claims as team convention, not platform rule.
- pictures-must-use-media-not-blob.md: MediaSet is a collection of
  independent media objects, not automatic image variants/thumbnails.
- log-writes-must-survive-rollback.{md,good.al}: StartSession's only
  data channel into the new session is its Record parameter to a
  TableNo-scoped codeunit; a setter called on a local instance before
  starting the session populates nothing in the new session.
- exposed-objects-must-be-in-a-permission-set.md: correct the three
  exposure mechanisms (Web Services config, PageType/QueryType=API,
  ServiceEnabled as a method-only attribute).
- pages-must-not-contain-business-logic.md: scope to persisted
  mutations and cross-entry-point rules; presentation-only
  calculations and table-owned invariants are not violations.
- given-blocks-must-cover-full-precondition-chain.good.al: replace
  invented LibrarySales calls with the real API
  (CreateCustomer/CreateSalesOrderForCustomerNo/PostSalesDocument).
- test-feature-scenario-tags.{md,good.al}: move [SCENARIO] inside the
  test procedure body to match the current BCApps corpus; keep
  [FEATURE] at codeunit level per Microsoft's own documented option.
- ui-test-codeunit-naming.md: scope the _UT suffix and adjacent-ID
  pairing as an explicit team convention, not a BCApps-wide standard.
- page-design-must-match-bc-page-type-conventions.md /
  table-design-must-match-bc-table-type-conventions.md: Card's
  single-key primary-key claim is a contextual heuristic, not a
  mandatory constraint (Ship-to Address, Customer/Vendor Bank Account
  are real composite-key Card pages); a Subsidiary table with its own
  identity commonly gets List+Card, not Worksheet/Tabular.
- api-page-least-privilege-write-access.{md,good.al}: only page-placed
  fields are ever exposed; set InsertAllowed/DeleteAllowed=false in the
  good sample so a narrow field set can't still create/delete records.
- source-organized-by-feature-not-object-type.md,
  test-one-when-per-test.md: scope as team/testing-design conventions,
  not Microsoft platform requirements.
- upgrade-tag-logic-must-not-nest-deeply.md: add the Microsoft Learn
  citation that already backs the two-level nesting limit.
- Wire the new articles into the testing/data-modeling/error-handling/
  security/ui review skills' candidate-selection signals.

a4d85c3e9e Add 18 more community AL/BC patterns across appsource, data-modeling, error-handling, security, style, testing, ui, upgrade, and web-services
Second contribution from CURABIS ApS, generalized from patterns observed across real AppSource/PTE development. Cross-checked against the current microsoft/knowledge corpus before opening; several originally-drafted candidates were dropped as duplicates of existing files.
