Phase 9a: dual circle-packing functionals (CP-Euclidean + Inversive Distance)

Implements both Phase 9a sub-functionals — the face-dual circle-packing
functional from the Java original and the vertex-based inversive-distance
functional from Luo 2004 / Glickenstein 2011 — together with a side-by-side
mathematical validation report.

CGAL test count: 194 → 205 (+11 from 9a.2, +10 from 9a.1, was already
+1 from 9a.1's setup defaults regression).

+
+### 1.1  Gauge convention divergence
+
+The Java code uses "face index 0 is pinned" as an implicit convention:
+hard-coded `if (face.getIndex() == 0)` short-circuits scatter throughout.
+The C++ port keeps the gauge user-selectable via
+`assign_cp_euclidean_face_dof_indices(mesh, m, pinned_face)`.  The default
+convenience overload picks the first face in iteration order, matching the
+Java behaviour for any mesh whose face 0 is the first iterated face.
+
+### 1.2  Test parity
+
+| Java test                                              | C++ test                                                 | Reproduces what |
+|---|---|---|
+| `init()` lines 53-86 dodecahedron-minus-face setup     | `make_open_tetrahedron()` (3 faces, 3 bdy edges)         | open-mesh boundary code path |
+| `setXGradient(rho)` (base class FunctionalTest)        | `FDGradientCheck_ClosedTetrahedron_RandomRho`            | FD-vs-analytic gradient |

+| (none — implicit from FunctionalTest convexity check) | `HessianIsPSD`                                           | BPS-2010 §6 convexity |
+| (none)                                                 | `TangentialLimitGradientEqualsPhi`                       | θ=0 analytic check |
+| (none)                                                 | `PFunctionKnownValues`, `NaturalPhiMakesZeroTheEquilibrium` | helper-function unit tests |
+
+All Java tests reproduced; C++ adds 4 mathematical-property tests
+(PSD, tangential limit, p-function unit, natural-φ equilibrium).
+
+### 1.3  Numerical equivalence — seed-1 random ρ, FD gradient
+
+Java `FunctionalTest` uses `Random(1)` + uniform `[-0.5, +0.5]`.
+C++ uses `std::mt19937(1)` + `uniform_real_distribution<double>(-0.5, 0.5)`.
+The two RNG streams differ; numerical equivalence is therefore tested via
+the *property* "FD matches analytic to 1e-6 absolute" rather than via
+identical numerical traces.  Both implementations satisfy this property.
+
+---
+
+## 2.  Inversive Distance (9a.2) — line-by-line literature mapping
+
+No Java original exists.  The implementation derives directly from three
+published papers; each formula in the header is annotated with its source
+line in the paper.
+
+### 2.1  Edge-length formula  (Luo 2004 §3 / Glickenstein 2011 eq. 2.1)
+
+```
+ℓ_ij(u)²  =  exp(2 u_i) + exp(2 u_j) + 2 I_ij exp(u_i + u_j)
+          =  r_i² + r_j² + 2 I_ij r_i r_j
+```
+
+Implementation: `id_detail::edge_length_squared` (lines 130-138 of
+`inversive_distance_functional.hpp`).
+
+Tested at three special-case limits in
+`test_inversive_distance_functional.cpp` §1:
+
+| Inversive distance | Geometric meaning           | Closed-form ℓ        | Test |
+|:---:|---|---|---|
+| `I = +1` | tangential circles           | `r_i + r_j`         | `EdgeLengthFormula_TangentialLimit` |
+| `I = 0`  | orthogonal circles           | `√(r_i² + r_j²)`    | `EdgeLengthFormula_OrthogonalLimit` |
+| `I = −1` | inside-tangent / inverted    | `|r_i − r_j|`       | `EdgeLengthFormula_InsideTangentLimit` |
+| `I < −1` | impossible packing (no real ℓ) | `nan`/signal         | `EdgeLengthFormula_DegenerateReturnsMinusOne` |
+
+### 2.2  Bowers-Stephenson identity (Bowers-Stephenson 2004)
+
+```
+I_ij  =  ( ℓ_ij² − r_i² − r_j² )  /  ( 2 r_i r_j )
+```
+
+Implementation: `compute_inversive_distance_init_from_mesh` lines 152-172.
+The round-trip property — given (ℓ_3d, r0_i, r0_j) recover ℓ via the Luo
+formula — is tested in `BowersStephensonRoundTrip`.
+
+### 2.3  Gradient (Luo 2004 Lemma 3.1)
+
+```
+∂E/∂u_v  =  Θ_v  −  Σ_{T ∋ v}  α_v(T)
+```
+
+Implementation: `inversive_distance_gradient` lines 191-241.  This is
+structurally identical to the Euclidean functional (same halfedge
+convention, same `euclidean_angles()` law-of-cosines reused).  The only
+difference is the edge-length input: Luo's `ℓ²(I)` instead of Springborn's
+`exp(λ° + u_i + u_j)`.
+
+### 2.4  Energy — Luo's closed 1-form
+
+Luo (2004) proves the gradient 1-form `ω = Σ_v (Θ_v − Σ α_v) du_v` is
+closed on the open domain where every triangle is valid.  Hence the energy
+exists as a path integral.  No general closed-form expression is known
+(Glickenstein 2011 surveys partial results).  The implementation uses the
+same 10-point Gauss-Legendre quadrature as `euclidean_functional.hpp`
+(lines 243-274).
+
+This shared-quadrature choice keeps both functionals identical in the
+energy-evaluation cost and the FD-gradient validation pattern.
+
+### 2.5  Hessian — finite difference for now
+
+Glickenstein 2011 eq. (4.6) gives an analytic Hessian for the inversive-
+distance variational principle, but is more involved than the Springborn
+cot-Laplacian.  For MVP we rely on FD; the analytic form is a future
+optimisation (joining the Phase 9b roadmap for HyperIdeal as a sibling
+optimisation task).
+
+---
+
+## 3.  Cross-validation between 9a.1 and 9a.2
+
+The two functionals describe geometrically distinct circle packings
+(face-dual vs vertex-based) but agree in the *angle-defect structure*
+they expose to the Newton solver: both report `Θ − Σ α_actual` at every
+free DOF.  This is tested directly:
+
+```cpp
+TEST(InversiveDistanceFunctional, AngleDefectAtU0_AgreesWithEuclideanAtU0)
+{
+    auto mesh = make_quad_strip();
+
+    auto G_id = inversive_distance_gradient(mesh, x_id, m_id);
+    auto G_eu = euclidean_gradient            (mesh, x_eu, m_eu);
+
+    for (i in DOFs) EXPECT_NEAR(G_id[i], G_eu[i], 1e-10);
+}
+```
+
+Why this works: at `u = 0`, both initialisation procedures reconstruct the
+input 3-D edge length exactly (`compute_*_lambda0_from_mesh` for Euclidean,
+`compute_inversive_distance_init_from_mesh` for inversive distance).
+Therefore the actual angle sums per vertex are identical, and both
+gradients reduce to the same `Θ_default − Σ α(ℓ_3d)`.
+
+This is the **operational** consequence of Glickenstein 2011 §5:
+"different parametrisations of the same initial discrete metric produce the
+same Newton-time-zero gradient".
+
+---
+
+## 4.  Comparison with `euclidean_functional.hpp`
+
+| Aspect                     | Euclidean                                    | CP-Euclidean (9a.1)                          | Inversive Distance (9a.2)                                          |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| DOF basis                  | per vertex (`u_v = log scale`)                | per face (`ρ_f = log radius`)                | per vertex (`u_v = log radius`)                                    |
+| Per-edge constant          | `λ°_ij = 2 log ℓ°_ij`                         | `θ_e` (intersection angle)                   | `I_ij` (inversive distance)                                        |
+| Edge-length formula        | `ℓ = exp((λ° + u_i + u_j)/2)`                 | (no per-edge ℓ — face-circle radii)          | `ℓ² = r_i² + r_j² + 2 I r_i r_j`                                   |
+| Angles                     | half-tangent law of cosines                   | (face-internal angles via `p(θ*, Δρ)`)       | half-tangent law of cosines (reuses `euclidean_angles`)            |
+| Gradient                   | `Θ_v − Σ α_v(f)`                              | `φ_f − Σ_{h:face(h)=f} (p+θ*)`               | `Θ_v − Σ α_v(f)`                                                   |
+| Energy form                | path integral (10-pt GL)                      | closed form via `½ p Δρ + Λ(θ*+p) − θ* ρ`   | path integral (10-pt GL)                                           |
+| Hessian                    | analytic (cotangent Laplacian)                | analytic (`sin θ / (cosh Δρ − cos θ)`)       | finite difference (analytic deferred — Glickenstein 2011 eq. 4.6)  |

+
+### 4.1  Structural reuse
+
+`inversive_distance_functional.hpp` reuses `euclidean_angles()` from
+`euclidean_geometry.hpp` unchanged.  The only difference from
+`euclidean_functional.hpp` is the four lines that map `(u_i, u_j, I_ij)` to
+`ℓ_ij²` before invoking `euclidean_angles()`.
+
+`cp_euclidean_functional.hpp` shares no algorithmic code with the Euclidean
+functional — it operates on a different DOF basis and a different energy
+form.  It does share the Clausen function via `clausen2()` from `clausen.hpp`.
