spatpersist: Create Persistent Identifiers for Longitudinal Spatial Data

Creates dataset-local persistent identifiers for polygon units observed across time. Configurable overlap metrics, thresholds, and one-to-one matching rules identify continuity while separate identifiers track boundary versions and broader lineages through splits, mergers, and replacements. Candidate-link diagnostics, validation checks, registry reconciliation, and lineage summaries keep the resulting decisions inspectable and reproducible.
