docs: Add state tax nexus question to LegalCORPS consultation

Browse Source 
WHAT WAS DONE:
Added critical tax compliance question to Ignis Protocol legal consultation document.

WHY:
Gemini identified state tax nexus as major blind spot for RV operations. Running subscription business while traveling across state lines triggers economic nexus laws for sales tax and complex income tax situations.

WHAT WAS ADDED:
New question #6 in Legal Consultation Goals section covering:
- Economic nexus obligations for sales tax
- Income tax compliance across state borders
- State registration requirements
- Documentation needs (work location vs subscriber location)
- Automated tax compliance tools (Stripe Tax/TaxJar)
- Simplified tax regimes for nomadic businesses
- Timeline pressure (RV travel Sept 2027)

FILE DETAILS:
- Location: docs/planning/ignis-protocol-specification.md
- Section: Legal Consultation Goals
- Added: 8 sub-questions under question #6

CONTEXT:
Based on Gemini's architectural review of Trinity Console expansion. This blind spot could cause serious legal/financial issues when founders begin RV travel in September 2027.
