Resolve nested complex quantity paths in the selector (#2041)

get_element_value could not reach the members of an IfcPhysicalComplexQuantity
(or IfcComplexProperty) by their natural path. util.element expands a complex
quantity into a dict whose nested members live under a "properties" sub-dict,
but the selector's dict navigation only looked at the top level, so
"Qto_Custom.Layer1.Width" returned None and IfcCsv exported nothing for it.
Only the internal "Qto_Custom.Layer1.properties.Width" path worked.

When a key is not a direct member of the value dict, descend into its
"properties" sub-dict so nested quantities/properties resolve with the
natural "Set.Complex.Nested" path. Direct keys still take priority, so the
explicit ".properties." path stays backward compatible and the regex branch
is untouched.

Verified: Qto_Custom.Layer1.Width -> 0.1 and Layer1.Height -> 2.5 (were
None), the sibling simple NetArea still resolves, the legacy .properties.
path still works, and IfcCsv now exports the nested value. test_selector.py:
38 passed (adds test_selecting_a_nested_complex_quantity).
