Duplicate Rule — entity reference

An admin-authored duplicate-detection rule for one entity (entityName), with the field criteria on child DuplicateRuleCondition rows. The dedup engine reads the active rules for an entity and builds its find-duplicates query from them, so matching is configurable per entity; when an entity has no active rule the engine falls back to built-in heuristics. matchLogic decides whether any condition suffices or all must match, and onMatch is Detect today - candidates are surfaced for review; Alert and Block are reserved values that do not yet prevent saves.
