[EPIC] Layers from VEDA STAC collections, with open-ended time #331

Description

Story

Mission admins add VEDA data to MMGIS by hand-assembling tile layer configs
from facts scattered across a STAC catalog — and the hardest fact is one
they cannot know: when the data ends. Most VEDA collections keep
growing; a config written today with a concrete end date is stale tomorrow.
Forecast products are worse — their whole time window moves every day.

This epic makes VEDA collections first-class layer sources:

  1. A layer's time range can be expressed as a policy ("ends now",
    granularity-aware) instead of a fixed timestamp, so configs for growing
    data never go stale.
  2. An admin can create a tile layer from a VEDA STAC collection: give a
    collection id, see what the collection offers (its render options and
    temporal coverage), make the few real choices, and the layer's fields
    fill from the collection's own metadata — including the open-ended time
    policy when the collection is ongoing.
  3. (Follow-up) Forecast collections, whose start and end both move, are
    expressible with the same policy mechanism.
