PR C: mechanical cleanup (typos, packages, formatting, culture)

- Consolidate decimal.ToFormattedString into Schaad.Accounting.Formatting
- Rename EnsureFileExisits -> EnsureFileExists and
  SplitPredefiniton* -> SplitPredefinition* (class, interface, files, DI reg)
- AccountRepository: single-save year-rollover start-balance seed
- Drop legacy .NET Standard packages redundant on net9.0 and the stale
  Interfaces\Extensions\ folder entry
- Set culture via RequestLocalizationOptions middleware
- Plan: item 9 (unit of work) split off into a dedicated PR D
