feat!: one paperspec command with subcommands, help and examples

The six console scripts (paperspec-check, -build, -validate, -load,
-stress, -site) become subcommands of a single `paperspec` command:
paperspec validate, load, check, build, stress and site. `python -m
paperspec COMMAND` runs the same thing.

- paperspec/cli/main.py builds the whole parser, apart from the commands,
  so `paperspec --help` and `paperspec COMMAND --help` work without a
  checkout or the tools extra; a command's module is imported only when
  it runs.
- `paperspec` with no command prints the overview: what each command does,
  examples, and which work anywhere (validate, load) and which need a
  checkout (check, build, stress, site). Each command's help has a
  description with advice, and worked examples; a misspelled command gets
  a suggestion (argparse suggest_on_error); `--version` prints the version
  and the pinned Unicode version.
- Each command module exposes run(args) and returns the exit status.
  Arguments that parse but do not fit together raise UsageError, which
  prints the command's usage and exits 2: load now also refuses
  --built-from or --store without --bundle.
- The failure messages say what to do: install paperspec[tools], clone the
  repository, rerun stress with the printed seed, or run paperspec build
  when the rebuild check differs. check and stress say how many failures
  they did not list.
- check runs the rebuild as `python -m paperspec build`.
- pyproject installs one script, `paperspec`; the pixi tasks and the docs
  use the subcommands.

pixi run check passes (run here as `python -m paperspec check` with src/ on
the path); the rebuild is byte-identical. pixi.lock still needs
`pixi lock`.

`pixi run site` builds the website into `_site/` ([deploy/](deploy/README.md)).
The tools need Python 3.14 and two packages, `jsonschema` and `cryptography`, which pixi installs along with markdownlint for the Markdown.
Without pixi, install the checkout as the package with `pip install -e ".[tools]"` on Python 3.14, then run `paperspec-check`.
