Add documentation describing the complete file ingest, characterization, and derivative-generation pipelines for both the ActiveFedora (actor-stack) and Valkyrie (transaction/persister) back-ends. Covers key classes, entry points, event-system wiring, Wings bridging, configuration knobs, and developer cautions about divergent behaviour between the two paths.
