bim.save_uv_to_style - support saving uv to objects without a style

There was a problem with assigning uv workflow if object wasn't originally from IFC - saving uv requires object to have IfcSurfaceStyle but assigning IfcSurfaceStyle would reload representation discarding UV.

So, the current workflow for saving non-ifc objects uv to ifc:
1) Assign class to ifc object
2) Create IfcSurfaceStyle with a texture (currently also requires a rendering style)
3) Use "Save UV To Style"
