🎉 Feature

Integrate published versions into AYON entity lists - #1871

Two new publish plugins enable automatic population of published versions into AYON entity lists. A collector resolves list names from anatomy templates and profile-based settings; an integrator creates or appends to those lists on the server — including on-demand folder hierarchy creation and review-session typing.
