Fix pythonocc-core viewer compatibility in geom.occ_utils and geom.app (#1037, #1098)

set_shape_transparency() called AIS_InteractiveContext.SetTransparency(),
whose argument count is inconsistent across pythonocc-core versions
(reported as a TypeError in #1037). Set transparency directly on the AIS
object instead, the same stable pattern already used elsewhere in this
file (display_shape() calls ais.SetTransparency() directly, never through
the Context), then call Context.UpdateCurrentViewer() to refresh.

app.py's viewer used a "SetSelectionPriority(counter)"/"SelectionPriority()"
pair as an ad hoc unique key to map a displayed AIS object back to its IFC
product. On modern pythonocc-core this crashed with AttributeError because
.GetObject() (needed to unwrap the old handle-based API) no longer exists
on AIS objects (#1098, PR #1113 partially patched one of the two call
sites but left the one in HandleSelection unguarded).

Live pythonocc-core 7.9.3 testing showed the GetObject() guard alone is
not sufficient: SetSelectionPriority/SelectionPriority themselves have
been removed from AIS_InteractiveObject entirely in modern OCCT (only
AIS_Trihedron keeps a same-named but unrelated method for datum parts),
so gating the .GetObject() call with the existing USE_OCCT_HANDLE flag
would still crash the first time a shape is selected. Verified live that
AIS objects retain correct __eq__/__hash__ (matching the underlying OCCT
instance) across separate SWIG wrapper instances, so ais_to_product is
now keyed directly by the AIS object itself, removing the dependency on
the removed OCCT API and the GetObject()/handle distinction altogether.

Verified live against pythonocc-core 7.9.3 (conda-forge) using real
AIS_Shape objects obtained from ifcopenshell.geom.occ_utils.display_shape()
and a real IFC file: reproduced both the original TypeError (#1037) and
AttributeError (#1098), confirmed both fixes resolve them, and confirmed
the ais_to_product dict lookup round trips correctly through a real
Context.Select()/SelectedInteractive() call. Could not exercise the full
Qt-embedded viewer.finished()/HandleSelection() flow end to end because
this pythonocc-core build segfaults natively when creating a second GL
context inside a Qt widget on this macOS host, a pre-existing environment
issue unrelated to this diff (reproduces identically with unpatched code,
before any touched line executes).
