comment gs1 alignment: - oec:IndividualTradeItemPiece for each constituent piece, each with its own AI 8026 identifier

notes: Pattern status: Reference pattern aligned with GS1 ITIP (AI 8026). May evolve as GS1 standardization settles.
notes: Why ITIP: Apparel sets (suits, uniforms, matching sets), flat-pack furniture with multiple cartons, and bundled electronics (tablet + keyboard + stylus) all benefit from piece-level traceability without requiring separate GTINs per piece. AI 8026 provides a compact, scannable identifier per piece while preserving the single-GTIN commercial model.
notes: DPP implication: For products requiring a Digital Product Passport, ITIP identification enables piece-level lifecycle tracking (e.g., the jacket of a suit can be repaired independently of the trousers) while the DPP itself is scoped at the trade-item level. This matches apparel DPP requirements being scoped for 2027.
