The operator is no longer needed and all the variations can be called exactly at the workspace hotkey level now (and thus nested operator errors won't cause runtime exceptions)
The alignment tool was initially designed specifically for LAYER2 objects. It doesn't have to be, so now LAYER2 is a special case where it may have its baselines and sidelines aligned whereas non-LAYER2 objects simply align based on bbox.
1) Used a hack to bring `blenderbim` into the main namespace instead of `bl_ext.repository.blenderbim`. This is not an official way to do it but this works for testing stuff (official way is to create a stub wheel that would redirect all `blenderbim` requests to `bl_ext.repository.blenderbim`).
2) AddonPreferences now require blender package name as it's bl_idname (e.g. bl_ext.repository.blenderbim)
3) Addressing preferences now also works through the blender package name. Created method in tool/Blender.py to incapsulate those details.

Paths to the opened IFC projects are now stored and then you can open them from File -> Open Recent IFC Project menu. It's done in very similar way to how Blender does it, list of files is stored in `Blender\4.1\config\recent-ifc-projects.txt`.
Recent changes in the UI already make this very unlikely - we don't show the ability to toggle edit mode pre-emptively in the viewport tob bar but just in case...
e.g. if you start test with pytest test_style.py -vv it will be easier to guess why it couldn't find a call
```
E Exception: <class 'abc.Ifc'> was not called with run:
E - {'type': 'SHOULD_BE_CALLED', 'number': None, 'call': {'name': 'run', 'args': ('style.add_surface_style',), 'kwargs': {'style': 'style', 'ifc_class': 'IfcSurfaceStyleShading', 'attributes': 'attributes'}}}
E Unprocessed calls:
E - {'name': 'run', 'args': ('style.add_style',), 'kwargs': {'name': 'name'}}
E - {'name': 'link', 'args': ('element', 'obj'), 'kwargs': {}}
E - {'name': 'run', 'args': ('style.add_surface_style',), 'kwargs': {'style': 'element', 'ifc_class': 'IfcSurfaceStyleShading', 'attributes': 'attributes'}}
```
Changing diffuse color for Blender material now won't change the linked IFC style.
Since now all style parameters for styles are changed through styles UI and users shouldn't use Blender materials tab unless they want to do something advanced (though they are still currently can use it to assign material styles to the specific faces).
PS 1 less thing to sync 🥳
