POST /projects

Create a project for the authenticated user (needs an account management token with the `config` scope). Body: `{name}`. The slug is derived + validated server-side (format / reserved words / uniqueness). The project serves traffic as soon as the call returns. 201 on success; 422 with an actionable message when the account is at its plan's active-project cap — archive a project or upgrade.
