Client-by-client behaviour for nesting

Fully supports nesting (2): Apple Mail iOS, Thunderbird.

Partial support (2): Apple Mail, Samsung Mail. Expect rendering quirks unique to each engine — partial support typically means a subset of values, an ignored shorthand, or sanitizer-specific rewrites.

No support (9): Gmail, Gmail Android, Gmail iOS, Outlook 365, Outlook (New), Outlook Classic, Outlook iOS, Outlook Android, Yahoo Mail. Plan fallbacks for these clients before relying on nesting in production sends.

Behaviour unverified in: HEY Mail, Superhuman.
