Fix #3578. Support querying surface styles in tools like IfcCSV.

Now, instead of trying to be clever and regenerating filling locations and opening types, we simply copy the existing scenario. This also means it'll be more stable for weird fillings coming from proprietary apps.

-Dockerized AWS Lambda Function with Python and IfcOpenShell
-===========================================================
-
-This guide provides a Dockerfile and sample code to help you run an AWS Lambda function written in Python and utilizing IfcOpenShell library. 
-
-Prerequisites
--------------
-
-Make sure you have Docker installed on your machine. You can download Docker from the official website: [Docker Instalation](https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/)
-
-Getting Started
----------------
-
-1. **Clone this repository to your local machine:**
-
-2. **Customize the Lambda function code:**
-   
-   - Replace the sample Lambda function code in the `example_handler` directory with your own code.
-   - Update the import path in the Dockerfile's `CMD` instruction to match your Lambda function's handler function.
-
-3. **Install the required Python packages:**
-   - Edit the `requirements.txt` file and add any additional dependencies required by your Lambda function.
-
-4. **Build the Docker image:**
-
-   ```shell
-   $ docker build -t lambda-ifcopenshell .
-   ```
-
-5. **Run the Docker container:**
-
-    ```shell
-   $ docker run lambda-ifcopenshell
-    ```
-6. **Test lambda locally**
-    
-    Follow the steps in this [guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/images-test.html)
-
-
-7. **Deploy to lambda**
- 
-    This is beyond the scope of this example. Please refer to AWS documentation. Some tools that could be useful are - AWS CloudFormaton, AWS CDK, pulumi or terraform
-
-
----------
-> Note: This is a superficial guide, in order to make this work for your usecase you will need a good understanding of other AWS services like SQS, S3, API Gateway etc.
-
-For more information on building lambda containers refer to this [guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/images-create.html).
