Rename the streamer/sidecar transfer and record types to describe what
they are rather than how they move:
MeshChunk -> StreamedMesh
InstanceChunk -> StreamedInstance
InstanceCpu -> InstanceInfo
PackedElementInfo -> ElementTableRecord
uploadMeshChunk -> uploadStreamedMesh
uploadInstanceChunk -> uploadStreamedInstance
buildMeshChunk -> buildStreamedMesh
and the two post-index sidecar metadata blocks:
"critical" metadata -> "geometry" metadata (meshes/instances/georef/TOC)
"deferred" metadata -> "element" metadata (elements + string table)
parseSidecarCritical -> parseSidecarGeometryMetadata
parseSidecarDeferred -> parseSidecarElementMetadata
The one behavioural change: the element hierarchy (parent_id) was
carried through ElementInfo, ElementTableRecord, and the sidecar element
table but never consumed, so drop it and bump SIDECAR_VERSION 16 -> 17.
No back-compat: regenerate sidecars. sample.ifcview is regenerated at v17.

Rename short local variables and parameters in the viewer loading, sidecar, and BonsaiViewer command paths to make their responsibilities clearer.\n\nGenerated with the assistance of an AI coding tool.
Keep placement transformations in double precision through streaming, sidecar caching, and viewport recomposition so large coordinates can be cancelled before the final GPU float upload.

Renamed HeadlessSidecarBuilder to SidecarBuilder and reused it for live
loads. SceneLoader now constructs one per stream load, forwards meshReady
/instanceReady chunks alongside the viewport upload, and finalizes +
writes the sidecar at onStreamerFinished — no more GPU readback path
via ViewportWindow::snapshotModel (removed). Same code path now produces
sidecars for both live loads and the .rdbview offline export.
Sidecar use is opt-in per direction via SceneLoader::setShouldReadSidecar
and setShouldWriteSidecar; both default off so embedders that don't want
caching get a pure-streaming loader. ifcviewer-full and ifcviewer-minimal
opt in.
