fix(engine): default FillContext.Policy to avoid null-deref in ReportProgress

FillContext.ReportProgress dereferences Policy.Comparer, so any caller
that forgot to set Policy hit a NullReferenceException. Default to
FillPolicy(DefaultFillComparer) so tests and ad-hoc callers work without
boilerplate.

+- `CadImporter` — shared "DXF → Drawing" service used by the UI, console, MCP, API, and training projects. Two-stage API: `Import(path, options)` loads raw entities, runs bend detection, and returns a mutable `CadImportResult`; `BuildDrawing(result, visible, bends, quantity, customer, editedProgram)` produces a fully-populated `Drawing` with `Source.Offset`, `SourceEntities`, `SuppressedEntityIds`, and bends. `ImportDrawing(path, options)` composes both stages for headless callers.

 - `FillScore` uses lexicographic comparison (count > utilization > compactness) to rank fill results consistently across all fill strategies.
 - **Cut-off materialization lifecycle**: `CutOff` objects live on `Plate.CutOffs`. Each generates a `Drawing` (with `IsCutOff = true`) whose `Program` contains trimmed line segments. `Plate.RegenerateCutOffs(settings)` removes old cut-off Parts, recomputes programs, and re-adds them to `Plate.Parts`. Regeneration triggers: cut-off add/remove/move, part drag complete, fill complete, plate transform. Cut-off Parts are excluded from quantity tracking, utilization, overlap detection, and nest file serialization (programs are regenerated from definitions on load).
 - **User-defined G-code variables**: Programs can contain named variable definitions (`name = expression [inline] [global]`) referenced in coordinates with `$name`. Variables resolve to doubles at parse time for geometry/nesting. `VariableRefs` on `Motion`/`Feedrate` track the symbolic link so post processors can emit machine variable references. Cincinnati post maps non-inline variables to numbered machine variables (`#200+`) with descriptive comments. Global variables share a number across programs; local variables get per-drawing numbers. `ProgramReader` uses a two-pass parse (collect definitions, then parse G-code with substitution). `NestWriter` serializes definitions and `$references` back to text for round-trip fidelity.
+- **CAD import pipeline**: All "DXF → Drawing" conversion goes through `OpenNest.IO.CadImporter`. The UI form uses `Import` on file load (storing the mutable result in a `FileListItem`) and `BuildDrawing` on save (passing the user's current visible entities and bends). Console, MCP, API, and Training projects use `ImportDrawing` for headless conversion. This guarantees all callers produce drawings with the same shape: pierce-point `Source.Offset`, stable `SourceEntities` with GUIDs, `SuppressedEntityIds`, detected bends, and metadata.
