Description
## Problem
`import_export/` has no coverage for `Cohort` or `CohortMembership`. Segments are exported (`export.py:152`), and `export_identities` serialises the whole `Identity` model, so `system_traits` goes with it.
## Impact
An import restores a `managed_by=COHORT` segment and the membership keys on identities, but no cohort behind either. The segment cannot be edited (managed segments are blocked) and the keys cannot be removed, since there is no cohort or ledger to drain.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start in import_export/, especially export.py:152 and export_identities, then trace how segments and identities are imported and exported. Check the Cohort and CohortMembership models and existing coverage before adding round-trip handling. Done means an organisation import restores cohorts, memberships, and the references needed for managed segments and identity traits to work correctly.
