Configures repository-level instructions to provide GitHub Copilot coding agent with context about the codebase, conventions, and architecture.

Changes

  • .github/copilot-instructions.md — Comprehensive guidance covering:
    • AL development environment (Runtime 16.0, BC 27.0, object range 62000-62049)
    • Naming conventions (D4P BC prefix, D4P.CCMS.<FeatureArea> namespaces)
    • Code standards (NoImplicitWith, SecretText for credentials, data classification)
    • AL-Go for GitHub build system configuration
    • Project structure (14 feature areas under src/)
    • Security patterns and design principles
    • Common workflows and governance model references

Enables Copilot to generate code consistent with Business Central AL conventions and CCMS architectural patterns.
