Gorgious56 5b79cefee2 Fix #8138: door/window container assignment no-op
Spatial.get_root_element walks aggregate / nest / filled-void /
voided-element chains and core.assign_container assigns the container
to whatever the walk returns. For an IfcDoor the filled-void hop
redirects to the IfcOpeningElement, then voided-element to the host
wall, so a user who selects a door and runs bim.assign_container ends
up targeting the wall — and silently no-ops on the door if the wall is
already in the target storey.

Per IFC4 / IFC4.3 (IfcDoor, IfcWindow): the spatial containment of a
filling is defined independently of the filling relationship. Major
exporters (Revit, ArchiCAD, Tekla, Allplan) emit independent
ContainedInStructure on doors / windows accordingly. Drop the
filled-void / voided-element hops from the walk; aggregate and nest
remain — those are true sub-part relationships where the parent
legitimately owns the container.

New TestGetRootElement in test/tool pins the new contract (filling
resolves to itself) plus the retained aggregate / nest / loose-element
paths so a future PR that re-adds either hop is caught. Two new
TestAssignContainer cases in test/core pin filling-to-self through the
core layer and per-element can_contain filtering.

IfcOpenShell

IfcOpenShell is an open source (LGPL) software library for working with Industry Foundation Classes (IFC). Complete parsing support is provided for IFC2x3 TC1, IFC4 Add2 TC1, IFC4x1, IFC4x2, and IFC4x3 Add2. Extensive geometric support is implemented for the IFC releases IFC2x3 TC1 and IFC4 Add2 TC1. Extending with support for arbitrary IFC schemas is possible at compile-time when using C++ and at run-time when using Python.

In addition to a C++ and Python API, IfcOpenShell comes with an ecosystem of tools, notably including IfcConvert (an application to convert IFC models to other formats), Bonsai (an add-on to Blender providing a graphical IFC authoring platform), and many other libraries, CLI apps, and more. Support is also provided for auxiliary standards such as BCF and IDS.
