tax behaviour

Whether the product's published prices already include tax/VAT (inclusive), have it added at checkout (exclusive), or leave it unstated (unspecified) — the convention that fixes what the pool's stored price numbers (`list_price`, `sale_price`) MEAN. A product-level token (cardinality one) stating the display convention of record for the product's published prices. Collapses schema.org valueAddedTaxIncluded, Stripe Price.tax_behavior (whose inclusive/exclusive/unspecified value-domain this adopts), Shopify taxIncluded, and the marketplace 'VAT included' notice into one state token. Parity grammar: a convention any offer realises, the same status as the price it qualifies. The actual tax amount and rate are computed downstream from `tax_category` and jurisdiction (L1/offer), not here. A governed token, growing (L13).
