Add tools/codegen/inherited/INHERITANCE_MAP.md, a design note mapping the surface that every temporal subtype inherits from the abstract classes Temporal, TNumber, TAlpha, TSpatial, TGeo, TPoint and Tcell, organised by the reference-manual XML section structure that governs family file numbering. For each inherited behaviour the document records whether the canonical generator (tools/codegen/inherited/) emits it today or it is still hand-maintained: a section-by-section table per class chapter, a per-family gap table with the live SQL file numbers, and a roadmap. It also diffs the class hierarchy against the one the MEOS-API catalog derives, listing the types the MEOS-API object model omits. Every catalog reference is cited to live source so the map can be re-verified.
