abstract: Creates dataset-local persistent identifiers for polygon units observed
  across time. Configurable overlap metrics, thresholds, and one-to-one matching rules
  identify continuity while separate identifiers track boundary versions and broader
  lineages through splits, mergers, and replacements. Candidate-link diagnostics,
  validation checks, registry reconciliation, and lineage summaries keep the resulting
  decisions inspectable and reproducible.
