Research direction
Read ADR 0089 and trace Motif's FieldWorks Markdown option handling for table styles, including the parsing path that reports fwmd.syntax.unsupported-markup and the GDR text/setParagraphs write path. Check how gdr show exercises discussion-table round trips. Done when both acceptance criteria pass; missing project styles should follow the existing unknown-style error path.

Description
What to build
Motif's FieldWorks Markdown options name the table styles (ADR 0089, amended 2026-11-10): header Table Header, rows Table Row, cell separator Table Cell Separator. A pipe table in a Rationale, Comment or GDR then reads and writes as a table, not fwmd.syntax.unsupported-markup. For a FieldWorks write (GDR via text/setParagraphs) where the project lacks a style, the existing unknown-style path gives a clear message (creating styles is #46's).
Acceptance criteria
- A Rationale with a pipe table has no findings and Finalizes
- A GDR Discussion table round-trips through gdr show where the project has the styles
