feat(permissions): implement org.hypercerts and app.certified CRUD permission sets

Add the two permission-set lexicons designed in docs/design/permission-sets.md:

- org.hypercerts.permissions.crud   — CRUD over all org.hypercerts.* records
- app.certified.permissions.crud    — CRUD over all app.certified.* records

Each enumerates every type:"record" collection in its namespace (the spec
forbids wildcards inside a permission set) with action create/update/delete.

permission-set is a lexicon primitive that lex gen-api cannot codegen (it has
no TypeScript shape), so these files are published as-is but excluded from the
codegen globs (gen-api/gen-md/gen-ts) and from generated/exports.ts. The full
`npm run check` (gen-api, lint, typecheck, build, test, style) passes.

+
+Add two permission-set lexicons — `org.hypercerts.permissions.crud` and `app.certified.permissions.crud` — each granting create/update/delete over every record collection in its namespace.
+
+A [permission set](https://atproto.com/specs/permission#permission-sets) lets any AT Protocol app request a whole bundle of `repo:` scopes with a single `include:<nsid>` OAuth scope, instead of enumerating each collection by hand. The user's PDS resolves and expands the set during the OAuth grant; the same published set can also be consumed by services (e.g. the Certified group service) when expanding API-key scopes.
+
+Permission sets are published as-is (they are the source of truth for what gets published to AT Protocol) but have no TypeScript shape — `lex gen-api` cannot generate code for `permission-set` defs. They are therefore excluded from the codegen globs (`gen-api`/`gen-md`/`gen-ts`) and from `generated/exports.ts`, while still shipping as raw lexicon JSON.
+
+Collection lists are enumerated explicitly because the spec forbids wildcards inside a permission set; they must be kept in sync as record types are added. See `docs/design/permission-sets.md`.
