Jesús Pérez 9cef9b8d57 refactor: consolidate configuration directories
Merge _configs/ into config/ for single configuration directory.
Update all path references.

Changes:
- Move _configs/* to config/
- Update .gitignore for new patterns
- No code references to _configs/ found

Impact: -1 root directory (layout_conventions.md compliance)

🏛️ SYNTAXIS - Brand Identity Guide

Brand Essence

Name & Origin

Name:         SYNTAXIS
Origin:       Greek (σύνταξις)
Meaning:      Arrangement, Composition, Systematic Ordering
Pronunciation: sin-TAK-sis

Core Identity

SYNTAXIS represents the systematic arrangement of complex elements into harmonious workflows. Like Ptolemy's "Syntaxis Mathematica" brought order to astronomy, SYNTAXIS brings systematic order to project orchestration.
