core: implement vendor verification and approval flow

[EmeditWeb]

Problem

register_vendor() immediately marks vendors as active.
There is no approval process. Any address can register
and immediately start receiving loan disbursements.

What To Build

1. Add VendorStatus enum (Pending, Approved, Suspended, Rejected)
2. register_vendor() sets status = Pending
3. Add approve_vendor(), suspend_vendor()
4. Verify vendor status in create_loan()
