Hakan SevenandClaude Opus 4.8 c653a3f38e feat(commands): add FLATSHOT and CONVTOSURFACE
- FLATSHOT: project the selected solid's edges to 2D Line entities at Z=0
- CONVTOSURFACE: convert the selected solid(s) to Surface entities

Both reuse the cached B-rep's edge wires. COMMANDS.md: 219/262.

Counts include commands listed under more than one category (e.g. SLICE, HELIX, MINSERT, SUBTRACT/UNION/INTERSECT appear in both their 2D and 3D groups).

Still out of scope: POINTCLOUDATTACH/RECAP (proprietary binary point-cloud parser plus a GPU point renderer) and UNDERLAYLAYERS/UOSNAP (PDF/DWF internal-layer parsing) — each needs an external dependency and real test files.
