Add new section documenting restricted keywords for MicroephysCoordinateSystem field in coordsystem.json for icephys and ecephys datasets. Includes:

  • Pixels: 2D electrode localization on brain images
  • AllenCCFv3: Allen Common Coordinate Framework for mouse brain
  • WaxholmSpace: Standardized rat brain coordinate system
  • WistarRatAtlas: Wistar rat brain MR histology atlas
  • individual: Subject-specific anatomical coordinates
  • Other: Custom coordinate systems

Each entry includes relevant references, DOIs, and RRID identifiers. Provides guidance for requesting additional coordinate systems and links to detailed microelectrode electrophysiology specification.

`MicroephysCoordinateSystemDescription`. This coordinate system requires specifying
an additional, subject-specific file to be fully defined.

but in general it seems we might better just kick it out for now since as you @bendichter mentioned -- other modalities do not support that ATM, and aim for 80/20
