feat(license): add Lite SKU; remove user-facing free trial

Browse Source 
Two coupled changes:

1. Lite tier
   - New Tier.LITE in src/license/schema.py.
   - FEATURES_BY_TIER[Tier.LITE] = {Deduplicator, Text Cleaner,
     Format Standardizer}. The three universally-useful tools that
     cover the most common bookkeeping / RevOps / Klaviyo prep
     workflows. Other six tools require Core.
   - i18n: license.tier_lite, license.feature_locked_title,
     license.feature_locked_body, license.upgrade_link,
     license.status_locked (en + es).
   - Per-tool feature gate at every GUI tool page
     (require_feature_or_render_upgrade) and every tool CLI
     (guard(feature=...)). A locked tool renders an upgrade
     prompt + Manage-license button (GUI) or exits with code 2
     (CLI).
   - Home grid: tool cards the user's tier doesn't unlock get a
     red 🔒 Locked badge in place of green Ready.

2. Trial removed
   - Activation form's "Start 1-year trial" button removed.
   - license_cli's `trial` subcommand removed.
   - activation.trial_button / activation.trial_help i18n keys
     dropped (pack parity test stays green).
   - Tier.TRIAL stays in the enum (back-compat with any field-
     tested trial licenses); LicenseManager._mint stays internal
     for tests and the seller's key generator.
   - Decision logged in DECISIONS §9b: a 1-year all-features
     trial undercuts paid Lite; paid-only keeps tier economics
     clean.

Tests (+29 net): +17 Lite-tier unit/guard tests + 13 Lite-tier
GUI tests + 1 trial-absent assertion - 2 trial CLI tests - 1
trial GUI button test. Total: 1995 → 2024.

| May 13 (v1.6) | Remove user-facing free trial | A 1-year all-features trial undercut the paid Lite SKU. Paid-only keeps tier economics clean. Internal ``_mint`` API still exists for tests and the seller's key generator. See §9b. |
## 9b. Licensing model
@@ -203,6 +205,18 @@ $49-79/bundle · $149 full suite (when 3+ exist).
**Future SKUs**: the ``FEATURES_BY_TIER`` table in ``src/license/features.py`` is the single source of truth for "which tools each tier unlocks". Adding a PRO SKU that excludes the pipeline runner is a 1-line edit there + a 1-line edit at the gate site. No consumer-code churn.
**v1.6 SKU lineup**:
| Tier | Tools unlocked | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| LITE | Deduplicator, Text Cleaner, Format Standardizer | Entry SKU. Three universal tools that handle the most common bookkeeping / RevOps / Klaviyo prep workflows. |
| CORE | All 9 tools | Full v1 suite. |
| PRO | All 9 tools (scaffolded) | Reserved for future per-feature carve-outs (e.g., scheduled pipelines, API access). |
| ENTERPRISE | All 9 tools (scaffolded) | Reserved for future bulk / multi-seat SKUs. |
| TRIAL | Same as LITE | Deprecated — no longer issuable. Mapping kept for any legacy on-disk trial licenses to load without error. |
**Trial removed (v1.6)**: a 1-year free trial that unlocked every tool would undercut the paid Lite SKU (why pay for Lite when trial gives more for longer?). Paid-only keeps the funnel clean. The internal ``LicenseManager._mint`` API still exists for tests and for the seller's ``scripts/generate_license.py`` key generator; there's no user-facing way to self-issue a license.
