Task 6 of the whole-job engine API: adapt the public NestRequest/NestRunner/
NestResponse surface to delegate to the whole-job runner instead of a manual
quantity loop.
- NestRequest: optional explicit Plates stock list (null keeps the legacy
unlimited SheetSize fallback; empty list means no available stock),
optional per-part Id (derived as part-{index} when absent), and an explicit
PlacementStrategy that takes precedence over the legacy Strategy.
- NestRequestPlate: one physical-stock type (id, size, quantity, spacing,
quadrant).
- NestRunner: imports each DXF once, propagates priority/rotation constraints,
runs a single NestJobRunner solve, materializes ID/pose placements exactly
once, and reports aggregate utilization as total placed part area over total
physical sheet area.
- NestResponse: exposes status, stop reason, part fulfillment, stock usage,
and plate-to-stock mapping; .nestquote save/load gains a schema version and
reports completion as unknown for old archives lacking fulfillment metadata.
- Tests: extend the Api request/runner/persistence suites for legacy SheetSize,
explicit mixed finite stock, stock exhaustion, weighted utilization, old
archive loading, and new-archive round trips.
Verification: cross-compiles clean on net8.0-windows (Linux). The Api tests
require a Windows runner (net8.0-windows) and are NOT executed here; the
delegated engine logic is covered by the 70-test net8.0 Engine.Tests suite
(committed in Task 5). Windows runtime verification remains outstanding.
Consolidated two stateless classes into one unified API: Dxf.Import(),
Dxf.GetGeometry(), Dxf.ExportPlate(), Dxf.ExportProgram(). Export
state moved into a private ExportContext. Removed bool+out pattern
from GetGeometry in favor of returning empty list on failure.

Material and thickness are properties of the nest (all plates share the
same material/gauge), not individual plates. This moves them to the Nest
class, removes them from Plate and PlateSettings, and updates the UI so
EditNestInfoForm has a material field while EditPlateForm no longer shows
thickness. The nest file format gains top-level thickness/material fields
with backward-compatible reading from PlateDefaults for old files.

Etch marks for up bends are now real geometry entities on an ETCH layer
instead of being drawn dynamically. They flow through the full pipeline:
entities → FilterPanel layers → ConvertGeometry (tagged as Scribe) →
post-processor sequencing before cut geometry.
Also includes ShapeProfile normalization (CW perimeter, CCW cutouts)
applied consistently across all import paths, and inward offset support
for cutout shapes in overlap/offset polygon calculations.

- NestRunner now assigns Material to plates from request.Material
- NestResponse.LoadAsync uses descriptive exceptions instead of null-forgiving operators
- Fix pre-existing FillExtents.Fill signature mismatch (add bestFits parameter)

Stateless orchestrator that takes a NestRequest and returns a NestResponse.
Imports DXFs, builds NestItems, runs the engine in a multi-plate loop until
all parts are placed, computes timing, and returns utilization metrics.
