ajandClaude Opus 5.5 4b2aba83bb feat(fill): keep interlocked pairs whole and place leftovers as pairs ...

A quantity-limited fill trimmed the parts farthest along the trim axis,
which could take one half from each of two pairs. TrimToCount now finds
interlocked pairs and keeps or drops them whole (from d1d68a91), so the
spare space stays one usable cell.

After a fill, leftovers now run in two orders, pack-first and pairs-first,
and the strategy's comparer keeps the better whole layout, so its ranking
of this step cannot get worse. Even quantities go in as best-fit pairs,
may turn a quarter when unrestricted, are tried in every remnant and are
ranked with the layout around them. Each placed pair slides left and down
against true outlines to take the space its bounding box could not.

On compare.nest Vertical Remnant goes from 6665.1 to 5862.6 and Lattice
from 7200 to 5915.8. Nine characterization pins change from the trim with
counts unchanged; the fill pins now also check layout validity. Vertical
Remnant's golden layout shortens from 28 to 26.
