Fixes issue #3910's documentation gap. IsDefinedBy() returns
IfcRelDefinesByProperties relationship objects, not the property set
itself, and RelatingPropertyDefinition() must be used to reach the
IfcPropertySet or IfcElementQuantity. Properties can also come from an
element's type via IsTypedBy() -> RelatingType() -> HasPropertySets(),
a path that is easy to miss because it works differently. Adds a
worked, beginner-commented, compilable example covering both paths.

Expose the Euler rotation of an element's placement in degrees through
get_element_value, alongside the existing x/y/z and easting/northing/
elevation keys. This makes element rotation exportable through ifccsv,
e.g. for placing oriented symbols in GIS.
Adopts the approach agreed in the review of the stale PR #6272 by
@TZwielehner: reuse util.shape_builder.np_matrix_to_euler and do the
degree conversion inside get_element_value.

(cherry picked from commit d4805387ef)
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.

The location and parent filters both match at any depth in the spatial
hierarchy, which surprises users who want only the elements immediately
under a given container. Document that the parent query key resolves the
direct parent only (e.g. query:"parent.Name"="My Site"), add a matching
filter example, and note the immediacy on the parent value key.

Address maintainer request on #8368: instead of a deflection floor on top
of a fixed CircleSegments count, use one mode or the other. When
CircleSegments == 0 (the new default) the CGAL kernel derives the conic
segment count from MesherLinearDeflection, matching the deflection based
meshing OpenCascade already does and fixing #8051. When CircleSegments is
non zero it is used directly as a fixed, radius independent count.
CircleSegments is only read by the CGAL kernel; OpenCascade meshes by
deflection and never reads it, so the new default has no effect there.
Update the setting description and the ifcconvert / geometry-settings docs.

Rewrite the BonsaiViewer viewport architecture page to match the current
renderer (updated type names, streaming/sidecar flow). Add a dedicated
.ifcview sidecar format reference page and link it from the ifcopenshell
formats toctree, and polish the Bonsai intro copy.

Add --format ids to the ifcquery.rst format description and a new
"Scripting with ifcedit" section showing composition examples. Add
the foreach subcommand to ifcedit.rst with usage examples.
Add ifcquery, ifcedit and ifcmcp to the README contents table, the
Sphinx docs toctree and introduction utilities table. Add new .rst
pages for each package documenting subcommands, installation, usage,

README to use -o/--out-format flags. Update ifcmcp README to use the
installed ifcmcp command rather than python3 -m ifcmcp.

Fix Sphinx docs: replace csv-table with list-table for formatting functions
The documentation table of formatting/query functions was not rendering
because `.. csv-table::` requires strict RFC4180 CSV escaping. The table
contains nested quotes, inch marks (e.g. `3' - 0"`), backticks, and code
examples, which cause the CSV parser in docutils to treat rows as malformed
and drop the entire directive.
Replaced the directive with `.. list-table::`, which parses reStructuredText
instead of CSV and safely supports inline code, quotes, and multi-line cells.
Also moved the examples text outside the directive block and ensured a blank
line after the table so Sphinx does not interpret following paragraphs as
table rows.
No content changes — documentation now renders correctly.

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.
