Stefan Walcz c67c0782f8 feat(pii): extend a detection over the next word (extend_to_next_word)
Address models tend to tag a postal code with high confidence but miss
or under-score the town right after it. Measured with
privacy-filter-multilingual on 24 synthetic German invoices: the postal
code was masked every time, while the town after it stayed in the clear
in 6 of 18 cases (4 not detected at all, 2 tagged CITY at 0.43/0.47,
below the configured floor). Masking the code alone leaves the pair half
redacted: "[REDACTED:ner:ZIPCODE] Ludwigshafen".

pii_detection.extend_to_next_word lists entity groups whose accepted
detections also cover the word that directly follows them on the same
line, with the same action and group. Horizontal whitespace is skipped,
a line break ends the search, and nothing is extended when no word
follows, so a hit never grows over bare whitespace or onto the next
line (or across the segment separator on the multi-message path).

The option is opt-in and empty by default; existing detector configs
behave exactly as before. Covered by Ginkgo specs in
core/services/routing/pii/extend_test.go (fail without the change), a
YAML round-trip spec, a registry entry for the model editor, and the
middleware and model-configuration docs.
