Implement the AutoCAD compatible HATCHTOBACK (HB) command and enhance the interactive DRAWORDER command pipeline with comprehensive verb selection and viewport entity picking.
Key implementations and architectural details:
1. HATCHTOBACK command execution
* Isolates entities belonging to the active layout block record or global space.
* Filters out entities residing on locked layers using an efficient hash set lookup.
* Records targeted delta undo operations on SortEntitiesTable objects (~100 bytes) rather than snapshotting full document structures.
* Performs granular draw depth cache invalidation via Scene::invalidate_draw_depth, preserving existing geometry tessellations and spatial indices.
* Emits localized user notifications when no qualifying hatch entities are found.
2. Interactive DrawOrderCommand state machine
* Supports preselected entities as well as interactive on demand selection gathering.
* Implements subverb selection supporting single character shortcuts (A for Above, U for Under, F for Front, B for Back) and case insensitive keyword parsing.
* Enables interactive reference object picking directly in the viewport via needs_entity_pick and on_entity_pick callbacks.
* Supports hexadecimal handle specification directly from the command line interface.
3. Ecosystem and system integration
* Bumps DEFAULT_ALIASES_VERSION from 2 to 3 to register the HB alias while preserving existing user overrides.
* Integrates HATCHTOBACK and HB into dynamic autocomplete registries.
* Adds localized message strings across all 20 Fluent translation catalogs.
* Corrects hatch boundary serialization flags to ensure outermost boundary rings consistently carry the external attribute.
HatchModel lost the field when viewport clipping moved to the GPU
stencil path; the literal in this test no longer compiled.

When writing a hatched region with holes to DXF/DWG, every NaN-separated ring was created with BoundaryPath::external(), so consumers treated inner loops as outer islands instead of holes. Only the first (outer) ring should carry the external / outermost flags; hole rings are left unflagged. A picked big-minus-small hatch now persists with the small rectangle as a real hole.
Adds a regression test asserting only the first boundary path is flagged external.
Three commit helpers narrowed a typed/picked point back to f32 before it
reached the persisted entity, so the coordinate was quantized to the f32
grid (worse at large/UTM extents):
- Scene::create_block_from_entities took the base point as glam::Vec3, so
the block's local-space translation and the replacement INSERT's
insert point were f32. Param is now DVec3 (matching the sibling
define_block_from_owned_entities); the command_driver handler no longer
downcasts with as_vec3().
- The MTEXT and TEXT in-place editors stored `pos` as Vec3 and built the
committed insertion_point from it, quantizing a new label's position
and re-quantizing an existing one on edit. Both `pos` fields are now
DVec3.

The HATCH/GRADIENT/BOUNDARY commands built the persisted hatch through
the render-side boundary (f32 offsets from world_origin), and with a
zero world_origin that meant absolute f32 - so a typed boundary vertex
of 2000.8 was stored as 2000.8020, and at UTM scale the fill landed far
from its boundary.
HatchModel.boundary stays f32 (the GPU render contract). Added
HatchModel.boundary_wcs: Option<Arc<Vec<[f64;2]>>>, an exact absolute-WCS
boundary set only by the draw commands. Scene::add_hatch persists from
boundary_wcs when present (exact f64 -> DxfHatch), else falls back to the
f32 + world_origin reconstruction used by DXF-rebuilt hatches. manual_pts
is now Vec<DVec3>; make_hatch takes the f64 boundary, stores the exact
copy and derives the RTE render rep. The committed render model is
rebuilt from the DXF entity, so nothing renders the command model's f32
boundary. This also fixes command hatches mis-placing at large
coordinates (world_origin was [0,0]).

Three defects found reviewing the just-merged PRs:
- PLOTWINDOW forced corner snap (#293) only ran in the on_tick preview
path, so the marker highlighted an endpoint but the click committed a
plain snap — with the global OSNAP master (or Endpoint mode) off the
corner landed at the raw cursor, defeating the feature. Apply the same
snap_forced_corners branch at the click-commit recompute.
- build_dxf_pattern (#292) wrote the pattern line's LOCAL step into the
world-frame HatchPatternLine.offset. The new prebaked reader
inverse-rotates offset assuming world frame, so app-created hatches
(HATCH command) collapsed their spacing by cos(angle) — ANSI31 at 45deg
rendered 2.245 instead of 3.175 on both viewport and PDF/plot export.
Rotate the local step into world here so it round-trips and the stored
offset is format-correct for other CAD apps.
- far_from_origin_pattern_hatch_still_fills placed its offset ALONG the
45deg lines (projects to k~0), so it never exercised the span-cap fix and
passed even with the old absolute-index clamp restored. Move the offset
perpendicular to the lines so |k| >> the cap. Add
app_created_hatch_roundtrips_catalog_spacing to guard the offset-frame
fix (verified: fails at 2.245 without it, passes at 3.175 with it).

Hatched content — especially fills nested inside a block INSERT, such as a
title-block logo — plotted incorrectly: missing, mis-spaced, or with phantom
bars. Five related fixes make the PDF/plot output match AutoCAD.
1. Export block-internal hatch fills.
The export collected only hatches owned directly by the layout block, so a
hatch nested in a block INSERT was dropped and printed as bare monochrome
outlines. The insert-explosion the viewport already does is extracted into a
shared `exploded_insert_hatch_models()` and called from both the viewport
(`synced_hatch_models`) and the export (`paper_canvas_hatches`), so a plot
draws block-internal hatches identically to the screen.
2. Honour the hatch's own stored pattern-line spacing.
`hatch_model_from_dxf` re-derived pattern spacing from the name-matched
catalog entry x pattern_scale, ignoring the resolved line geometry the DWG
stores on the hatch. When a drawing was authored against a different base
spacing (imperial 0.125 vs the catalog's metric 3.175 for ANSI31), lines
came out up to ~25x too coarse and a dense fill collapsed to a few stray
lines. When the hatch carries its own line geometry it is now used directly
(identity scale/angle); the catalog path remains the fallback.
3. Fill far-from-origin pattern hatches.
`pattern_segments` clamped the ABSOLUTE scan-line index to
+/-MAX_LINES_PER_FAMILY. A fine-spaced hatch far from the pattern origin has
large-magnitude indices at both ends but a small span, so the clamp inverted
the range and emitted nothing — silently dropping the fill. Cap the line
count (span) instead of the absolute index.
4. Skip TEXTBOX boundary paths.
TEXTBOX boundary paths (flag bit 3) are text bounding-boxes AutoCAD derives
for island detection; they are never drawn or filled. Treating one as a fill
boundary painted its rectangle solid — a phantom bar. It is now skipped when
building the fill boundary.
5. Print white/ACI-7 hatch fills black on paper.
Hatch fills arrive adapted to the dark screen background, so a white/ACI-7
fill would vanish white-on-white on the sheet. Mirror the wire pass:
near-white/near-yellow -> black, near-cyan -> dark blue, matching AutoCAD's
colour-7-on-white plotting. Wipeouts keep their paper-white mask.
Adds `tests/block_hatch_export.rs` covering: block-internal hatch reaches the
export set, stored-line spacing is honoured, far-from-origin fills are not
dropped, and TEXTBOX paths are not filled.
