feat(lexicon): add sources array to external embed for megathreads

Adds optional sources field to social.coves.embed.external lexicon
to support aggregator megathreads that combine multiple news sources.

Changes:
- Add #source definition with uri, title, domain, and optional sourcePost
- Add sources array (max 50) to #external for aggregated links
- Add maxLength constraints to domain (253) and provider (100) fields
- Update descriptions to clarify primary vs aggregated content

This enables LLM aggregators to create megathread posts that reference
multiple source articles, with optional strongRef to existing Coves
posts for future feed deprioritization.
