are the endpoints heterogeneous or do they all have (only) a shared set of endpoints and semantics? do they change over time? where do you find them? these are useful things to add if there are long-lived URLs explaining them.

Is there a maximum length (in digits or in bytes), or a maximum integer value? is 0 a valid chainId? are negative chainid's allowed?

I think this could be merged as-is because it's a pretty straight-forward chainId system, but the clarifying questions I left would all be worth answering if they can be dispensed by adding a sentence and/or a link each! I recommend doing so because these profiles serve as a kind of onboarding resource for devs new the space, and avoid cross-chain footguns firing off because of faulty assumptions about the underlying semantics or mechanics of network identification/resolution systems.

Add Aptos namespace
This PR introduces the Aptos namespace to the ChainAgnostic namespaces registry.

aptos/README.md- Namespace profile for the Aptos ecosystemaptos/caip2.md- CAIP-2 chain identification specification for AptosSummary
Aptos is a Layer 1 blockchain built on Move, featuring parallel execution via Block-STM for high throughput. This PR establishes the
aptosnamespace for identifying Aptos-based chains.Chain Identification (CAIP-2)
Chains in the Aptos namespace are identified by their numeric
chain_id, which is assigned at genesis and requires no transformation to be used as a CAIP-2 reference.aptos:1aptos:2Resolution
Chain IDs can be resolved by querying the REST API of any Aptos fullnode:

chain_idfield in the response provides the identifier.References
