## Problem
The custom palette taxonomy (#46) pins display strings to fixed TLK ids in `tlk/custom.tlk.yml`, and `registerInlineAtID` demanded each pinned id be free. But `.tlk_state.json` is **gitignored and per-machine** — each dev grows their own copy, and before #46 every ref got its id dynamically (first-come-first-served).
On any machine whose state predates #46, a ref could have already parked on a now-pinned id. That fails the build:
```
topdata validation failed with 1 error(s): error: native topdata buildability check failed:
TLK id 2689 is already reserved by "feat:yuanti/alternate_form.feat"
```
It only passes on machines whose state was regenerated after #46 (pinned window already clean). The `allocateID` reserved-skip that #46 added protects a *fresh* build, but does nothing about a *stale cache*.
## Fix
Make the pin authoritative over the per-machine cache. A stale cached owner sitting on a pinned id is evicted and reallocated a fresh id when next made active; only two pins fighting over the same id in `custom.tlk.yml` is now an error. This self-heals on the next build — no manual `.tlk_state.json` deletion needed.
Caveat: the evicted ref's strref shifts on affected machines. That's unavoidable (something must move off the pinned id), and dynamic strrefs were never stable across machines anyway.
## Tests
Added `TestBuildStandaloneTLKPinEvictsStaleStateOwner` (seeds a pre-#46 state with a feat parked on the pinned id, asserts the build succeeds, the pin owns it, and the feat is reallocated). Full `internal/topdata` suite + `go vet` pass.

The legacy normalize migration is done (confirmed). This deletes the dead migration path: NormalizeProject + 26 *_migrate.go files, the importLegacyItempropsRegistry cluster, loadLegacyTLK, and their tests (~7.9k lines, -33 files worth). mergeLegacyTLK moved into tlk_native.go since the live TLK compiler still uses it for base_dialog.json. make check passes.

Native topdata migration summary
- Replaced the legacy 2dabuilder runtime path with the native topdata builder.
- Native build, validate, compare, and convert flows now cover the canonical topdata pipeline.
- compare-topdata is now a native self-check; legacy reference-builder runtime usage was removed.
- Parts generation follows the native asset-scan contract and uses sow-assets via project asset resolution.
- Generated feat families, class-feat injects, masterfeat/successor expansion, and dataset-derived feat generation were brought to parity and regression-covered.
- Remaining mirrored datasets were migrated into native-owned canonical data while preserving lock IDs.
- normalize-topdata bridge behavior and migration-era ownership markers were removed.
- Documentation was rewritten around the native workflow and active contracts were cleaned up.
- Final hardening pass removed stale validator assumptions and cleaned ignored/generated artifacts for PR readiness.
