+Approvals thread interactions — the collaboration layer between submit and decide. `reassign()` hands a pending-approver slot to someone else (audit-first ordering, new approver notified via the optional `messaging` service), `remind()` nudges every pending approver with a 4h per-request throttle (`THROTTLED` → HTTP 429), `requestInfo()` sends a request back to the submitter for more material while it stays pending, and `comment()` adds free-form thread replies. Rows expose `sla_due_at` (`created_at + escalation.timeoutHours`, display-only) and single reads attach `flow_steps` (the owning flow's approval trunk with done/current/upcoming states). REST grows the four matching POST routes; the `sys_approval_action.action` enum gains the new kinds.
