The in-memory inverse_index was one flat vector with a sorted flag. Every
add() cleared the flag and every lookup re-sorted the entire vector, so a
loop that creates an instance and then reads an inverse (api.pset.add_pset,
for one) cost O(R log R) per iteration on a file with R references: 400 ms
per add_pset call on a 155 MB model, against 0.4 ms on v0.8.0.
Split the index into two tiers. The flat vector stays as the base: bulk
loading appends to it and sort() finalizes it once, as before, and removals
tombstone in place. Records added after that go to a delta bucketed by
referenced id, and lookups read the base range followed by the bucket.
compact() folds the delta back and drops tombstones once either outgrows
the live base, so folding is amortised O(1) per mutation.
The four in-memory callers in parse.cpp move from an iterator range to
for_each()/count(). The map-shaped legacy interface that variant_map needs
is kept and materialises from both tiers.
add_pset on the 155 MB model: 400 ms -> 0.25 ms per call. Unit test covers
interleaved create-then-read, repointing across both tiers, deletion of
sources and targets, and tombstoning past the compaction threshold.

Setting an IfcInteger/IfcTimeStamp typed attribute (e.g. IfcOwnerHistory.CreationDate)
outside the signed 32-bit range corrupted the value instead of raising, since the
Python wrapper's set_attribute_value_py() truncated it with a plain static_cast<int>
before handing it to the C++ storage. Unix timestamps before 1901-12-13 or after
2038-01-19 silently wrapped around (e.g. 3000000000 became -1294967296) rather than
being rejected or stored correctly. Fixes#3058, equivalent to PR #8683 but ported to
this branch's rewritten ifcparse (snake_case files, variant_array/instance_data
storage, SWIG PyObject-based attribute setter) instead of the old IfcEntityInstanceData
sources, which no longer exist here.
The scalar slot of the attribute variant (Argument_INT) becomes int64_t. Integer
aggregates (Argument_AGGREGATE_OF_INT, e.g. CoordIndex) and instance/reference
identifiers stay 32-bit, since neither is the value that overflows here; this narrow
scope is kept on its own technical merits (aggregates and identifiers were never the
source of the bug, and widening them would be a much larger, riskier change for no
benefit) even though aothms said compatibility isn't a concern on this v0.9-track
branch. express::Base::set_attribute_value promotes the schema-generated int to
int64_t at a single choke point, so the generated setters keep compiling unchanged.
The STEP lexer, writer, and SWIG wrapper (set_attribute_value_py, pythonize) are all
widened together, since widening only the Python-facing setter would have silently
wrapped the value on file write instead of raising.
Verified in a build (IFC2X3 and IFC4, BUILD_IFCGEOM off, no kernels): pre-1901,
post-2038, both 32-bit boundaries, and a 9e12 value all round trip exactly both in
memory and through STEP text serialization (write then reopen). A value outside the
64-bit range now raises a clean exception instead of corrupting data. Ordinary
in-range integers and integer aggregates (e.g. IfcTriangulatedFaceSet.CoordIndex) are
unaffected. The existing util/test_attribute.py and test_file.py suites pass
unchanged; test_entity_instance.py has 5 pre-existing failures unrelated to this
change (confirmed identical on an unfixed build of this branch, caused by a missing
get_info_2 binding and _patch_swig_comparisons never being implemented here).

Fixes builds with newer GCC/libstdc++ that no longer provide <cstdint>,
<cstring>, <cfloat>, <memory>, <algorithm> etc. transitively. Also
disambiguates visit<> calls in taxonomy.h with the full namespace and
casts the character value in IfcCharacterDecoder to uint32_t to silence
ambiguous overload warnings.

Read-only handles reject Flush/CompactRange, so the destructor's status
assertion always fired on shutdown when the streamer's sidecar was
opened with read_only=true. Track the flag and skip the write path; also
guard against a null db when the initial open failed.
