E.g. previously set_element_value with query "material.item.Material.Name" would fail with error "Material property is expecting an IFC entity and not a string".
But now it will detect that "Material" property is not a last key in the query and will pass `.Material` value forward and try to set it's `.Name` attribute with value.
The main goal is to make sure get_element_value and set_element_value would have a same result for same queries.
removed part of test_append_two_type_products_sharing_the_same_material_indirectly_via_a_material_set for ifc2x3 compatibility and removed part is already tested in test_append_two_type_products_sharing_the_same_material_with_properties
After ab5ea4c85 it was always throwing wrong singature errors like below even if TypeError was caused by some internal issues inside API - it was adding couple extra steps to traceback making errors more noisy.
TypeError: Incorrect function arguments provided for library.edit_library
attribute 'VersionDate' for entity 'IFC2X3.IfcLibraryInformation' is expecting value of type 'ENTITY INSTANCE', got 'str'..

Correct signature is (file: ifcopenshell.file.file, library: ifcopenshell.entity_instance.entity_instance, attributes: dict[str, typing.Any]) -> None
See help(ifcopenshell.api.library.edit_library) for documentation.
When some test was creating an element and then removing it, it would also remove user and application as they wasn't used anywhere else.
`ifcopenshell.util.element.remove_deep2(file, history)` we use in every api for element deletion can possibly remove user and application which can be unsafe if `get_user` is returning some specific entity that then will become invalid.
Also fixed tests breaking due ifcownerhistory and user/application appearing in ifc2x3.
it was creating new applications and users every time `ifcopenshell.api.owner.settings.get_user` or `ifcopenshell.api.owner.settings.get_application` was called
Fix LSP warnings like ""entity_instance" is not exported from module "ifcopenshell"PylancereportPrivateImportUsage" for `ifcopenshell.file`, `ifcopenshell.entity_instance` etc.
After adding py.typed in 722201a1a it's now a typed library and all imported symbols in modules are considered private by default and should be added to `__all__` if they are supposed to be generally available from imported module.
