Add an operator-level domain block (admin).

POST
/v1/admin/operator-blocks
curl --request POST \
  --url https://api.opdns.io/v1/admin/operator-blocks \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --cookie opdns_session=<opdns_session> \
  --data '{ "pattern": "example", "reason_code": "legal_order", "public_ref": "example", "note": "example", "pops": [ "example" ], "jurisdictions": [ "example" ], "expires_at": "2026-04-15T12:00:00Z" }'

Republishes operator/blocks.json (announced on NATS operator.changed) in the same transaction; every edge in scope answers the pattern NXDOMAIN with EDE 15, whatever the profile. csam entries are fleet-wide (no pops or jurisdictions). Audited (the pattern of a csam entry only as a SHA-256 digest).
