Sienna Meridian Satterwhite abd54e4c33 feat(examples): rewrite baker-family as coherent Competition Week narrative
Rewrote the baker-family example around a unified story: the annual Harvest
Baking Competition is Saturday. Martha's sourdough starter Old Maggie is
sluggish from a cold snap, Jane is secretly entering the FreeStyle category,
Emma's science fair project is "The Chemistry of Fermentation", Henry is
judging for the first time and worried about impartiality, and Roland is
defending last year's title.

The week's schedules (Mon guild meeting → Tue test bakes → Wed sourcing →
Thu dough prep → Fri science fair → Sat competition → Sun recovery) are
now fully populated with narrative-specific actions.

Files split for composability:
- behaviors/baker_behaviors.sb → 5 focused files by character/domain
- schema/types.sb → 4 files (core, baking, world, social)
- schedules/work_schedules.sb → 4 files (one per schedule)
- relationships/baker_family_relationships.sb → family + bakery

Strong typing: replaced all enumerable string fields with concepts
(BakerSpecialty, Occupation, LocationType, InstitutionType, ParentingStyle,
Intensity, BakeryDomain, BakingDiscipline, ManagementDomain,
CompetitiveAdvantage).

Remove new-syntax-demo.sb (superseded by baker-family example).

---backstory
Martha learned to bake from her grandmother, who passed down Old
Maggie — a sourdough starter that has been alive for thirty years.
Old Maggie is the soul of Martha's bread, and Martha tends to her
like a third child: daily feedings, temperature checks, and quiet
conversations when the bakery is empty.
She has won the Harvest Baking Competition three out of the last
five years, always in the Signature category with her sourdough.
Last year, Roland took the title with a dark rye that the judges
called "revelatory," and Martha has been determined to reclaim it
ever since. The rivalry deepened when Roland hired away her former
apprentice, Thomas, last spring — a betrayal she has not forgotten.
This week, Old Maggie is sluggish from a cold snap that dropped
the bakery's overnight temperature. Martha has been wrapping the
starter in blankets and moving her near the oven, but the rise is
still not where it needs to be for Saturday's competition. She is
quietly worried but will not show it.
