ValidationResult
The answer to "is this identifier well-formed?" — no network call. The only shape the validation operation returns, on both surfaces (``DECISIONS.md`` D-010): REST ``GET /v1/{country}/validate/{id}`` and the MCP tool ``validate_company_id``. Note that an invalid identifier is **not** an error here: this operation answers a question, so it returns ``valid=False`` with a ``reason`` and a ``hint`` rather than raising. That is the one deliberate exception to ``DECISIONS.md`` D-007's "every expected failure is a raised ``RegistryError``" — and the reason ``hint`` is carried on this model. Build it with ``Registry.validate(id)``; do not construct it in a surface.
