canonical-keysort-json bootstrap (deterministic JSON key-ordering library)

Lifecycle approvedImplementation completeVerification unknownQualification unknown

Bootstrap spec for the canonical-keysort-json repository: a single-crate library that recursively lexicographically sorts object keys at the JSON serialization boundary, so values serialize byte-identically regardless of serde_json's preserve_order feature. Extracted (relicensed Apache-2.0 by the sole copyright holder) from the Open Agentic Platform's crates/canonical-json. It is the leaf dependency of attest-ledger and action-gate. This spec establishes the crate skeleton and seeds this repo's own spec corpus, which is governed by the pinned spec-spine library.
