docs(insights): note the Enright 40-80 cohort in the six-minute-walk caveat
The Enright & Sherrill 1998 predicted-distance equation was established on a 40-80 reference cohort; the metric accepts adult ages 18-120, so the prediction extrapolates outside that range. State it in the user-facing caveat (all locales) and the norms doc so a younger or older user reads their percent-of-predicted with that honesty.
