feat(phase4a+4b): Newton solver + CGAL mesh I/O

Phase 4a — newton_solver.hpp:
  - newton_euclidean(): SimplicialLDLT on H (PSD); solves H·Δx = −G
  - newton_spherical(): SimplicialLDLT on −H (NSD→PSD); solves (−H)·Δx = G
  - Backtracking line search (halving α up to 20×) for global convergence
  - NewtonResult struct: x, iterations, grad_inf_norm, converged
  - 7 tests: 4 spherical (convergence, few iters, large perturbation,
    field consistency) + 3 Euclidean (triangle pinned, quad pinned,
    mixed pinned — all with natural-theta equilibrium at x=0)

Phase 4b — mesh_io.hpp:
  - read_mesh() / write_mesh(): CGAL::IO::read/write_polygon_mesh wrappers
  - load_mesh() / save_mesh(): throwing convenience versions
  - Supports OFF, OBJ, PLY (format detected by file extension)
  - 6 tests: OFF round-trip (tet + quad), OBJ round-trip, missing-file throw,
    vertex-position preservation, save/load convenience wrappers

All 75 cgal tests pass (3 skipped as before).

//
// Phase 4a — Newton solver for the discrete conformal functionals.
//
// Solves G(x) = 0 where G is the gradient of the discrete conformal energy:
// G_v = Θ_v Σ_f α_v^f (angle-sum residual at each vertex DOF)
//
// Algorithm per iteration:
// 1. Compute gradient G(x)
// 2. Check convergence: max|G_i| < tol → done
// 3. Compute sparse Hessian H(x)
// 4. Factorize and solve the Newton system:
// Euclidean: H · Δx = G (H is PSD → SimplicialLDLT directly)
// Spherical: (H) · Δx = G (H is NSD → negate to get PSD matrix)
// 5. Backtracking line search: halve α until ||G(x+α·Δx)|| < ||G(x)||
// 6. x ← x + α·Δx, go to 1
//
// Requires:
// Eigen::SimplicialLDLT (part of Eigen's sparse Cholesky module)
