The filter_elements selector grammar had no way to comment out part of a
query, so users had to delete and retype text to temporarily toggle a
facet. Add a /* ... */ block comment terminal that is ignored by the
lexer, and tolerate a trailing "+" so that commenting out the final
operand (e.g. "IfcWall + /* IfcSlab */") parses cleanly. Comments may
span multiple lines; a /* sequence inside a quoted string is not treated
as a comment. Only the filter grammar is affected, not get_element or
format which use "/" for regex and division.
Adds a regression test and documents the syntax.

When a `+`-separated filter group returns no results, `FacetTransformer.facet_list`
was skipping the reset of `has_additive_facet_in_current_list` because the reset
was inside the `if self.elements:` guard. The stale flag caused the next group's
`add_default_elements()` to bail out early, leaving its element set empty and
silently dropping every subsequent group from the result.
Move the flag reset outside the guard so it always fires regardless of whether
the group produced any results.
Previously, sort, reverse list, and join functionality was implemented
as special cases in Bonsai itself. Given that it has usecases
(especially in material lists, but any sort of list applies) I've moved
this function into the IOS formatting language.
The IOS formatting language previously wasn't capable of this, but the
awesome addition by @falken10vdl made the formatting language accept
queries inline, so that means it can handle lists. I also added tests
for all the new functions and expression syntax (+-*/ operators).
I simplified the code that gets the evaluated text literal - previously
it seems to call format() multiple times.
Previously the code looked for additive facets (entity, instance)
anywhere in the query, and then only added the default basket once at
the beginning of the query. This change makes it look for additive
facets in order (that way you could start with a default selection, and
then later use an additive facet) and does it per facet list (so you can
omit the additive facet at the beginning of each list).
1) Identify from previous pset value whether prop was an enum (by checking if previous value is a list), instead of searching through prop templates
2) Compare previous and new enum values - if they match, skip editing IFC.
to avoid issues importing csvs that used it to extract correct predefined type
Example warning:
WARNING. Assigning 'predefined_type' is not yet supported. Skipping value 'ELECTRICACTUATOR' for element: '#89=IfcActuator('1RjCen6XL6WAdhz7HumLFU',$,'Actuator.002',$,$,#179,$,$,.ELECTRICACTUATOR.)'.
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.
