Fix grid axis annotation misalignment when axis is moved

After moving an IfcGridAxis in Blender, the drawing annotation
was not tracking the axis to its new visual position. Two issues
were found and fixed:

1. generate_grid_axis_reference_points used the IFC AxisCurve
   geometry (via create_shape) with the grid object's matrix_world.
   After a save, the IFC AxisCurve is updated but the Blender mesh
   is not rebuilt, causing the two sources to diverge. The fix reads
   the axis object's Blender mesh vertices directly with
   axis_obj.matrix_world, which always matches what Blender renders.

2. When no Blender axis object exists, falls back to reading IFC
   geometry with the grid object's matrix_world (unchanged behavior).

Minor refactors: extracted matrices_differ variable in
sync_grid_axis_object_placement (export_ifc.py and drawing.py) and
extracted grid_placement variable in create_axis_curve.py for clarity.

Generated with the assistance of an AI coding tool.
