Class SingletonSettingsSelection

The ownership rule every singleton settings lookup applies, both at runtime (UnitySingletonSettingsLoader) and in editor validation (SerenitySystemConfigurationResolver): a project-owned settings asset beats a shipped one with the same Id. Engine-agnostic and Unity-free — the caller decides what "project-owned" and "Id" mean for its own candidate type.

Not the rule a COLLECTION lookup applies. This one asks "which candidate is authoritative for one slot" and answers by OWNERSHIP; CollectionSettingsSelection asks "is this asset the one another was cloned from" and answers by ID PAIRING, without consulting ownership at all. Two questions, two rules — do not merge them.

Func<T, bool>	isProjectOwned	True when a candidate lives in the user's own project content.
Func<T, string>	idOf	The candidate's IFoundationSettings.Id (or equivalent), used only to make an ambiguous pick deterministic.
SingletonSelectionOutcome	outcome	How the pick was made — see SingletonSelectionOutcome.
