cairo_parcels_legacy.geojson is a parcel snapshot stitched together from three legacy provincial systems before unification, and I need to turn it into the foundation for our new central registry. Can you clean it up so we end up with one canonical record per parcel? When duplicates exist, keep the record with the earliest record_seq, and discard any polygon fragments smaller than 1 m². Please write the result to parcels_canonical.geoparquet including these columns: parcel_id (the join key), parcel_class, district, and area_m2. Every feature must be a MultiPolygon, and there should be no null or empty geometries, no invalid geometries, no duplicate geometries, and no artifact slivers.
