Status glossary

One place that defines every status, so the same word never means two things across the two boards.

Statuses on each item’s per-task subitems (photography_originals, photography_versions, renders, ppid_images, and the rest) as they move through the Iconik Review Process.

Humans write only four of these - Approved, Revisions Needed, Revisions Done, and For James Review. The board writes everything else.
