Transition item state
Transitions the item to the supplied state. Valid transitions: active ↔ archived, active → trashed, archived → trashed, trashed → active (restore). Direct trashed → archived is rejected with 400 invalid_transition — restore to active first. Universal entry point used by the dedicated restore and soft-delete routes underneath. See Lifecycle.
