/**
 * Object Redirect
 *
 * The free-side contract behind the "Redirect this to" field on the post and
 * term SEO surfaces: one destination URL and one status code per object.
 *
 * Free owns the field; it does not own the data. Redirects are a Pro feature,
 * and a redirect stored here as post meta would be a second source of truth
 * next to the Pro rules table — the edit screen would keep showing a redirect
 * that a manager deletion had already stopped serving, and the 404 monitor
 * would never see it. So this class only brokers: it reads through
 * `thinkrank_object_redirect` and writes through
 * `thinkrank_object_redirect_save`, and with Pro inactive nothing answers
 * either, which is what makes the field an honest upsell rather than an input
 * that quietly discards what is typed into it.
 *
 * @since 2.7.0
