New: Move route definitions to routes.json (fixes #96)

[Copilot]

Migrates ContentModule's custom route definitions from imperative setValues() code to a declarative routes.json file, aligning with the loadRouteConfig pattern introduced in adapt-authoring-server.

Update

• setValues() now only sets collectionName and schemaName; root and route config are driven by routes.json
• Removed apidefs import — meta was only used in the imperative route objects

New

• routes.json declares the /insertrecursive and /clone POST routes with write:{scope} permissions; default CRUD routes are prepended automatically by loadRouteConfig

Testing

1. Start the authoring tool and verify POST /api/content/insertrecursive and POST /api/content/clone are registered and accessible
2. Confirm default CRUD routes (/, /:_id, /query, /schema) still function
3. Run npm test

<issue_title>Refactor: Move route definitions to routes.json</issue_title>
<issue_description>## Context

Route definitions are moving from imperative code to declarative routes.json files. The loadRouteConfig function in adapt-authoring-server (PR adapt-security/adapt-authoring-content#58) now handles reading routes.json, resolving handler strings to bound methods, validating against a schema, and merging with default routes.

AbstractApiModule (PR adapt-security/adapt-authoring-content#77) and AbstractAuthModule (PR adapt-security/adapt-authoring-content#68) both call loadRouteConfig in setValues() with a defaults option, so consumer modules that provide a routes.json automatically get the base default routes prepended.

Current state

ContentModule calls useDefaultRouteConfig() then pushes two custom routes:

• POST /insertrecursive → handleInsertRecursive (permission: write:content)
• POST /clone → handleClone (permission: write:content)

Refactoring steps

1. Create routes.json in the module root:

{
  "root": "content",
  "routes": [
    {
      "route": "/insertrecursive",
      "handlers": { "post": "handleInsertRecursive" },
      "permissions": { "post": ["write:{scope}"] }
    },
    {
      "route": "/clone",
      "handlers": { "post": "handleClone" },
      "permissions": { "post": ["write:{scope}"] }
    }
  ]
}

Default CRUD routes (/, /:_id, /query, /schema) are automatically prepended by loadRouteConfig.

2. Remove imperative route setup from init():

   • Remove the useDefaultRouteConfig() call
   • Remove the this.routes.push(...) calls
   • Remove root and permission setup code

3. Test by running npm test and verifying routes are registered correctly at startup</issue_description>
