cedar_is_small_threshold
The simplest def cedar macro: is_small(?n) names the < 100 threshold so
the bound lives in exactly one place, then calls it in a when { … } clause of
a SellShares permit. The macro is defined inline in policy.dw (no separate
macros.dw), and the default event schema is used.
Validate with:

Policy
// Name a threshold: `is_small(?n)` abstracts the `< 100` comparison so the
// bound lives in exactly one place. Called as an ordinary Cedar expression.
