BR-001 - Policy lifecycle via an explicit state machine

Code: BR-001 Name: Policy Lifecycle Description: Every Polizza (policy) follows an explicit lifecycle (proposal → issued → in force → expired/cancelled) with validated transitions. Inconsistent states (e.g. active and cancelled at once) are not allowed. Rationale: An explicit lifecycle ensures portfolio data consistency and correct premium earning.
