Whole-job fills treated clamps as occupied space, so a clamped edge cost
a row: 8.25in circles stopped at 96 on a sheet the plate fill packs with
102. When one drawing still has unmet demand, also fill the sheet as if
the clamps were absent, drop the parts on them and keep the better
layout.

DefaultPlateFiller becomes PlateFiller(plate, policy, layout); PlateFillerBase
and StripPlateFiller are gone. PlateLayout.FillThenPack is the old
orchestrator path (Fill and both Remnants); PlateLayout.Strips is the old
StripPlateFiller.Nest, and Strip is Fill policy plus Strips layout.
Lifetimes are unchanged: a strip-layout filler runs every Fill, group Fill
and PackArea on a fresh inner filler and gives each strip fresh remnant
fillers, so learned angles and PlateNumber never leak into them. The
comparer, preferred direction, trim axis and angle recording now read the
policy directly. The base class's unsorted two-angle BuildAngles is dropped:
only DefaultPlateFiller's pipeline called BuildAngles, and Strip never ran it.
Layout-neutral: all 29 FillStackCharacterizationTests pins pass unchanged.

Fill, Vertical Remnant and Horizontal Remnant are now three values of an
internal PlateFillPolicy that DefaultPlateFiller takes (Fill by default),
replacing RemnantPlateFiller and RemnantFillPolicy. The policy holds the
comparer factory, preferred direction, trim axis and angle mode; the
remnant angle mode still replaces the angle builder outright, and the
public FillPolicy that strategies read is unchanged. Layout-neutral: the
fill-stack characterization pins pass unchanged.

The multi-phase lattice fill (linear, pairs, rectangle best-fit, remainder) is
no longer meant to be the engine used by default, so it gets a name for what
it does. The registry lists it as Fill and maps the old name Default to it;
PlateFillService, PlateNesterFactory and NestJobOptions use Fill, and every
fill-strategy caller still accepts Default. Console --autonest now validates
engine names through NestingEngineRegistry.ResolveName so renamed names work.
Layouts are unchanged: Default and Fill resolve to the same fillers and the
golden layouts pass under the new name.
