Soft-remove a taxonomy node

DELETE/v1/taxonomy/nodes/{node_id}

Soft-removes a taxonomy node (sets removed_at/removed_by) and records a soft_remove event attributed to actor_id. The node is retained for audit but excluded from tree responses. Tenant-scoped; returns 404 if the node does not belong to the tenant. While a tenant data purge runs for the same tenant_id, the request is rejected with HTTP 409 (code tenant_write_conflict).
