Walkthrough

This PR simplifies copyright message data and propagates alignment through footer slots. CopyrightMessageSlot now accepts data.text: TranslatableString (replacing YextEntityField<TranslatableString>) and a new public prop alignment?: "left" | "right". The component renders the resolved text inside a Body element with alignment-aware classes. SecondaryFooterSlot was changed to propagate parent secondaryLinksAlignment into each CopyrightMessageSlot entry and to remove an alignment wrapper. FooterLinksSlot adjusted MD-breakpoint alignment utility classes. Docs and tests were updated to match the new prop shapes.

683-683: LGTM! Test data correctly updated for new alignment prop.

The addition of the alignment prop to CopyrightMessageSlot test data is consistent across all version 41 test scenarios. The alignment values correctly match their parent SecondaryFooterSlot's linksAlignment settings, and both "left" and "right" alignment cases are covered.

Also applies to: 892-892, 1046-1046
