fix(engine): fix FillExtents competition and vertical gap bugs

- FillExtents.Fill reported progress internally which overwrote the UI's
  temporary parts even when a better result (e.g. Pairs with 70 parts)
  won the competition. Added final ReportProgress call in FindBestFill
  and Fill(groupParts) to ensure the UI always shows the actual winner.

- FillExtents vertical copy distance clamp (Math.Max with pairHeight +
  spacing) prevented geometry-aware compaction from ever occurring,
  causing visible gaps between rows. Boundaries are already inflated by
  halfSpacing so the calculated distance is correct; only fall back to
  bounding-box distance on non-positive results.

- PairFiller now sets RemainderPatterns on FillLinear so remainder strips
  get pair-based filling instead of only individual parts (+1 part in
  tight layouts).
