Don't overwrite the Detail label with phase-level reports — let the
per-angle and per-candidate descriptions from the parallel loops remain
visible. Only clear the label on completion.

ReportProgress was not setting Description, so the Detail row always
showed the default em-dash. Now each phase report includes a meaningful
description, and UpdateProgress always updates the label (resetting to
em-dash when null).

Calculate unused plate area by subtracting total part area from the
work area instead of relying on FillScore.UsableRemnantArea, which
could over-report available space.

Run pairs phase first to establish a baseline before linear and
rect-best-fit phases. Replace IsBetterFill with direct FillScore
comparison. Simplify FillPattern to sequential iteration, reusing a
single FillLinear engine instance.

Brings in the full NFP implementation: ConvexDecomposition, NoFitPolygon,
InnerFitPolygon, NfpCache, BottomLeftFill, SimulatedAnnealing optimizer,
and INestOptimizer interface. Resolves conflicts by keeping master's
progress reporting infrastructure alongside the new AutoNest methods,
and adapting RunAutoNest_Click to use NFP AutoNest with async/cancellation.

"Length" is more natural than "height" for flat plate materials.
Renames the field on OpenNest.Geometry.Size, Box.Height property,
and all references across 38 files.

Implement geometry-aware nesting using No-Fit Polygons and simulated
annealing optimization. Parts interlock based on true shape rather than
bounding boxes, producing tighter layouts for mixed-part scenarios.
New types in Core/Geometry:
- ConvexDecomposition: ear-clipping triangulation for concave polygons
- NoFitPolygon: Minkowski sum via convex decomposition + Clipper2 union
- InnerFitPolygon: feasible region computation for plate placement
New types in Engine:
- NfpCache: caches NFPs keyed by (drawingId, rotation) pairs
- BottomLeftFill: places parts using feasible regions from IFP - NFP union
- INestOptimizer: abstraction for future GA/parallel upgrades
- SimulatedAnnealing: optimizes part ordering and rotation
Integration:
- NestEngine.AutoNest(): new public entry point for mixed-part nesting
- MainForm.RunAutoNest_Click: uses AutoNest instead of Pack
- NestingTools.autonest_plate: new MCP tool for Claude Code integration
- Drawing.Id: auto-incrementing identifier for NFP cache keys
- Clipper2 NuGet added to OpenNest.Core for polygon boolean operations

The push algorithm's copy distance formula (bboxDim - slideDistance)
produced distances smaller than the part width when inflated boundary
arc vertices interacted spuriously, causing ~0.05 unit overlaps between
all adjacent grid parts.
Two fixes applied:
- Clamp ComputeCopyDistance to bboxDim + PartSpacing minimum
- Use circumscribed polygons (R/cos(halfStep)) for PartBoundary arc
discretization so chord segments never cut inside the true arc,
eliminating the ChordTolerance offset workaround
Also parallelized three sequential fill loops using Parallel.ForEach:
- FindBestFill angle sweep (up to 38 angles x 2 directions)
- FillPattern angle sweep for group/pair fills
- FillRemainingStrip rotation loop
Added diagnostic logging to HasOverlaps, FindCopyDistance, and
FillRecursive for debugging fill issues.
Test result: 45 parts @ 79.6% -> 47 parts @ 83.1%, zero overlaps.

- Add bounding box rejection in HasOverlaps to skip expensive
Part.Intersects (CNC→geometry conversion) for non-adjacent parts.
Eliminates ~35% CPU in IsBetterValidFill for grid layouts.
- Optimize RayEdgeDistance: access Line fields directly instead of
property getters (avoids Vector struct copies), inline IsEqualTo
with direct range comparison (avoids Math.Abs), and precompute
deltas for reuse in interpolation.
- Cache line endpoints in DirectionalDistance outer loop to avoid
repeated struct copies in the inner loop.
- Add fill timer to ActionClone.Fill, displayed in PlateView status
bar as "Fill: N parts in M ms".

After the main fill, detect if the last column/row is an "oddball"
with fewer parts than the main grid. If so, remove those parts and
re-fill the remainder strip independently using all strategies
(linear, rect best-fit, pairs). Improves 30→32 parts on the test
case (96x48 plate with 30x7.5 interlocking parts).

Narrow remnant strips now get more parts by:
- Sweeping rotations every 5° when the strip is narrower than the part
- Including all pairs that fit the strip width (not just top 50 by area)
- Placing individual parts from incomplete pattern copies that still fit
- Using finer polygon tolerance (0.01) for hull edge angle detection

Add PushDirection.Right and PushDirection.Up to RotationSlideStrategy so
parts can approach from all four directions. This discovers concave
interlocking arrangements (e.g. L-shaped parts nesting into each other's
cavities) that the original Left/Down-only slides could never reach.
Introduce BestFitCache so best-fit results are computed once at step size
0.25 and shared between the viewer and nesting engine. The GPU evaluator
factory is configured once at startup instead of being wired per call
site, and NestEngine.CreateEvaluator is removed.

- Move BuildPairParts to BestFitResult.BuildParts() instance method
- Extract BinConverter (RectanglePacking) for Part/NestItem/Bin conversions
- Extract RotationAnalysis for FindBestRotation and FindHullEdgeAngles
NestEngine reduced from 484 to 287 lines — now purely orchestration,
strategy selection, and comparison logic.

- Fill(NestItem) and Fill(List<Part>) now delegate to their Box overloads
- Add Part.CreateAtOrigin() to replace repeated 4-line build-at-origin pattern
used in NestEngine, RotationSlideStrategy, and PairEvaluator
- Remove dead code: FillArea overloads, Fill(NestItem, int), FillWithPairs(NestItem),
ConvertTileResultToParts, PackBottomLeft.FindPointHorizontal, Pattern.GetLines/GetOffsetLines,
unused count variable in FillNoRotation
- Simplify IsBetterValidFill to delegate to IsBetterFill after overlap check
NestEngine reduced from 717 to 484 lines.

- Remove IsBetterValidFill overlap gate for FillLinear results; the
geometry-aware spacing in FillLinear is sufficient and the overlap
check produced false positives on parts with arcs/curves, causing
valid grid layouts to be rejected in favor of inferior pair fills.
- Add FillRectangleBestFit strategy that uses BestCombination to mix
normal and rotated orientations, filling remnant strips for higher
part counts on rectangular parts.
- All Fill overloads now compare linear, rectangle best-fit, and
pair-based strategies, picking whichever yields the most parts.

ActionClone.Fill() now computes the largest open rectangle from the
cursor position (trying both vertical and horizontal) and passes it
to the engine, so fills no longer overlap existing parts.
Pattern fills try all convex hull edge angles to find the rotation
that maximizes part count.

Merge ActionAddPart into ActionClone by adding a Drawing constructor,
eliminating the redundant class. ActionClone now handles both adding
new parts from a drawing and cloning selected part groups. Added
Ctrl+F fill support for groups using FillLinear pattern tiling, and
adopted quadrant-aware push directions from ActionAddPart. Refactored
FillLinear to extract shared helpers and add a Fill(Pattern) overload
for tiling arbitrary part groups across the work area.

Fill(NestItem) now uses actual part geometry instead of bounding boxes.
Also fixes Fill(NestItem, maxCount) which previously threw NotImplementedException.
