ICR Facility Type

National facility-classification tiers for the mCSD-style facility Organization (working doc §5.3 facility pairing). The authoritative classification axis lives on Organization.type — not Location.type — because facility level is an administrative designation (funding, staffing norms, reporting), which is an Organization concern. Codes are the broad tiers shared across national MFLs; the country-specific kind (e.g. Nigeria NHFR 'Primary Health Center' vs 'Health Post') travels as the coding display/text or a country localization system.
