Add missing standard library includes for self-sufficient headers

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.

+"""Shared helpers for Bonsai's parametric preview flows.
+
+Multiple Bonsai features follow the same Scene-level preview pattern:
+
+    Enable<X>Preview   — validates a selection, populates draft state on
+                         ``Scene.BIMPreviewProperties.<x>``, flips ``is_active``.
+    Gizmo<X>Preview    — polls on ``is_active``, surfaces tunable widgets +
+                         validate/cancel icons.
+    <X>PreviewDecorator — GPU lines drawn while ``is_active`` is True.
+    Finish<X>Preview   — direct ``bpy.ops.bim.<verb>(...)`` call with kwargs
+                         read off the draft state, then clears it.
+    Cancel<X>Preview   — pure state reset.
+
+The MEP bend and wall fillet flows are the two current callers. They write
+their Finish / Cancel operators directly, matching the convention used
+throughout the rest of ``bim/module/model/`` for operator-to-operator
+dispatch (explicit ``bpy.ops.bim.X(kwarg=value)`` at the call site, no
+string indirection). This module hosts the cross-cutting accessors only;
+no base class layer.
+
+The GPU draw-handler lifecycle for ``<X>PreviewDecorator`` lives on the
+feature-neutral ``tool.Blender.ViewportDecorator`` base, which every
+viewport decorator (preview or otherwise) inherits from."""

+"""Shared operator mixins for parametric-edit operators.
+
+Edit-lifecycle mixins (Enable / Finish / Cancel):
+    `FeatureModifierEditMixin` — door, window (BBIM_<Type> pset; nested
+        lining/panel properties; Finish + Cancel route through
+        ``ifcopenshell.api.feature``).
+    `PathPreservingEditMixin` — railing, roof (path_data preserved across
+        edit; only general kwargs are user-editable).
+
+Pattern selection (which approach a new feature should adopt):
+    Every parametric edit lifecycle commits to one of three patterns. Pick by
+    answering "does the feature share the Enable→Finish→Cancel shape that
+    one of the existing mixins already encodes?":
+
+    A. Inherit one of the shared mixins below and route through
+       `tool.Parametric.build_edit_lifecycle`:
+
+       - `FeatureModifierEditMixin` when the feature stores its pset as
+         `{general fields} + {lining_properties: {...}} + {panel_properties: {...}}`
+         and Finish must call a per-type `update_<type>_modifier_representation`.
+
+       - `PathPreservingEditMixin` when the feature's pset carries a
+         `path_data` field that survives general-kwarg edits untouched, with
+         a separate Enable/Finish/Cancel lifecycle for path editing itself.
+
+    B. Write a per-feature mixin that subclasses `ParametricEditMixinBase`
+       and provides `_enable_targets` / `_finish_targets` / `_cancel_targets`,
+       then route through `build_edit_lifecycle`. Pick this when the
+       feature's pset roundtrip or representation handling diverges from the
+       shared mixins but the Enable→Finish→Cancel shape still fits.
+
+    C. Declare standalone Enable/Finish/Cancel Operator subclasses (no
+       factory) when the feature's parameter-change logic is sufficiently
+       unique that even a per-feature mixin would force optional hooks or
+       dead branches. Such operators MUST call the matrix_world drift
+       helpers (`tool.Geometry.commit_placement_if_moved` on Enable/Finish,
+       `tool.Geometry.restore_or_rebaseline_placement` on Cancel) — the
+       drift contract is enforced uniformly regardless of which pattern the
+       operators adopt.
+
+    The authoritative list of registered parametric types — and which use
+    `build_edit_lifecycle` vs. standalone operators — lives in
+    `tool/parametric.py`'s `EDIT_TYPES` and is enforced by the registry
+    contract tests in `test/bim/test_parametric_registry.py`.
+
+This module hosts operator-side mixins that import ``bonsai.tool`` freely.
+The lightweight parametric registry consumed at addon-enable time must stay
+free of such imports and lives separately in ``tool/parametric.py``."""

+"""Registry and save-time auto-commit for parametric draft edits.
+
+The registry is consumed along two orthogonal axes:
+
+- **Predicate axis**: every entry carries an ``is_<name>`` total predicate. Used
+  by ``find_for_element``, save-flow auto-commit, and per-feature gizmo polls.
+- **Lifecycle axis**: a subset of entries flagged ``supports_build_edit_lifecycle=True``
+  share the ``Enable/Finish/CancelEditing<Type>`` operator shape and are wired
+  through ``build_edit_lifecycle``. The remainder declare their edit operators
+  directly because their lifecycle (per-attribute diff dispatch, layer-stack
+  editing, mid-spline gizmo drag, …) does not fit the shared mixin contract.
+
+Adding a new parametric element type is a single entry in ``EDIT_TYPES``;
+flag ``supports_build_edit_lifecycle`` only if the type's edit lifecycle matches
+one of the shared mixins in ``bim/parametric_lifecycle.py``."""

+Interactive Parametric Editing
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Selected walls expose an in-viewport parametric edit mode that mirrors the door /
+window / stair pen-icon UI:
+
+1. Select a single wall. A pen (Edit Wall) icon appears next to the wall in the
+   3D viewport, and a matching ``Edit Wall`` button is available in the
+   ``Parametric Geometry`` tab of the N panel.
+2. Click the pen icon (or the panel button) to enter edit mode. Dimension
+   gizmos for length, height, slope (x-angle) and the layer offset baseline
+   appear around the wall.
+3. Drag any handle to update the value. Dragging only modifies the in-progress
+   draft — the IFC file is not touched until you commit, so dragging a length
+   handle through many intermediate values produces zero extra IFC entities.
+4. Click the green ✓ icon to commit; click the red ✗ to discard. Pressing the
+   ✓ icon on a wall that hasn't been dragged is a true byte-identical no-op —
+   the IFC file is unchanged.
+
+While editing, additional gizmos surface based on context:
+
+- **Cycle Baseline**: cycles the layer offset baseline (Exterior → Centreline →
+  Interior). Shift+click cycles in reverse.
+- **3D-cursor scissors**: appears when the 3D cursor sits on the wall axis;
+  clicking splits the wall at the cursor's projected X.
+- **3D-cursor extend (horizontal)**: appears when the 3D cursor sits beyond the
+  wall axis; clicking extends the wall to the cursor's projected X.
+- **3D-cursor extend (vertical)**: appears when the 3D cursor sits above /
+  below the wall; clicking extends the wall's height to the cursor's Z.
+- **Rotate 90°**: rotates the wall around its Z axis.
+- **Show / hide openings**: toggles opening fill visibility (doors and windows).
+
+When two walls are selected, the gizmo switches to a state-aware icon at their
+common point:
+
+- Already joined → an Unjoin icon at the shared corner.
+- Collinear (same axis line) → a Merge icon at the boundary midpoint.
+- Joinable corner → a Join icon at the floor + an Extend-To-Wall icon at the
+  active wall's top.
+
+When a wall and a slab (LAYER3 element) are selected, an Extend-Vertically icon
+appears at the wall's origin / slab elevation; clicking dispatches
+``bim.extend_walls_to_underside``.
+
+When a wall and a non-wall, non-slab object are selected, an Add-Opening icon
+appears above the wall at the other object's projected X.
+
+Auto-commit on save
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Pressing Ctrl+S (or running ``bim.save_project``) while any wall is mid-edit
+flushes every pending parametric draft first — the same Apply-Wall-Edits the ✓
+icon performs, scoped per wall. The IFC saved on disk reflects the values the
+user dragged, not the snapshot taken when edit mode was entered. Each commit
+produces its own undo entry, so Ctrl+Z walks back through commits individually.

+"""Regression guard: overlapping distance gizmos must let the smaller one win.
+
+When two ``GizmoDimension`` instances overlap on screen (e.g. a short dimension
+nested inside a longer one along the same axis), the longer one's hit box fully
+contains the shorter one's. Without a depth bias the longer one wins the GPU
+select tie-break and the shorter one becomes unreachable.
+
+``GizmoDimension.set_dimension_length`` writes ``select_bias = -dimension_length``
+so the smaller one writes a higher (less-negative) bias and wins. The longer one
+stays clickable at its exposed ends regardless of bias.
+
+We call ``set_dimension_length`` as an unbound method on a ``SimpleNamespace``
+fake ``self``. Its body only *writes* attributes (``_display_value``,
+``_dimension_length``, ``select_bias``), so it doesn't need a real
+``bpy.types.Gizmo`` instance — those only exist inside a registered
+``GizmoGroup`` and aren't constructible in a headless test."""

+registration and the silent-desync the framework exists to prevent will ship.
+
+These tests pin the registry-to-runtime contract: for every entry the operator
+``bl_idname``s resolve to registered ``bpy.ops.bim.*`` callables, the
+``PropertyGroup`` class is attached to ``bpy.types.Object``, and the per-type
