Adds `operator|` in `namespace CGAL` so package-local named parameters
can be combined left-to-right without modifying CGAL upstream:
auto p = CGAL::parameters::gradient_tolerance(1e-12)
| CGAL::parameters::max_iterations(500)
| CGAL::parameters::output_uv_map(uv);
CGAL::discrete_conformal_map_euclidean(mesh, p);
Why not the canonical `.a().b().c()` syntax
───────────────────────────────────────────
CGAL's standard chaining mechanism requires registering each named
parameter as a member function on `Named_function_parameters` via the
`CGAL_add_named_parameter` macro in
`CGAL/STL_Extension/internal/parameters_interface.h` — a vendored
upstream file that conformallab++ deliberately treats as read-only.
Adding member-function chainers for our package-local tags would
require either forking CGAL or modifying the vendored copy. Neither
is acceptable for a library that wants to remain portable across
future CGAL releases.
The pipe-operator achieves the same compositional semantics via a
free function in `namespace CGAL` (so ADL finds it for
`Named_function_parameters` operands). Implementation: rebuild the
right-hand-side `Named_function_parameters` with the left-hand-side
as its `Base`, producing an indistinguishable chain that every entry
function accepts unchanged.
Implementation: `code/include/CGAL/Conformal_map/internal/parameters.h`
lines 158-187. The operator is constrained to right-hand-sides with
`No_property` base (i.e. fresh single-parameter packs from the helper
functions), so it never collides with any future CGAL operator on the
same type.
Tests (2 new, total Phase-8b-Lite suite 15 → 17)
────────────────────────────────────────────────
* CGALPhase8bLite.NamedParamPipe_MultipleParamsTakeEffect
Chain three parameters; verify all three take effect (tight
tolerance respected + UV pmap populated + iteration cap honoured).
* CGALPhase8bLite.NamedParamPipe_TwoParams
Chain two parameters; verify max_iterations(0) blocks the loop
even when combined with another param.
Full CGAL suite: 234/234 PASSED, 0 SKIPPED (was 232).
Total: 257/257 PASSED, 0 SKIPPED (was 255).
scripts/check-test-counts.sh: OK.
Documentation updates
─────────────────────
* doc/tutorials/add-output-uv-map.md §3.4: "Current limitation: no
chaining" → "Chaining: use the pipe operator `|`". Explains why
CGAL's `.member()` syntax isn't available and shows the `|`
workaround with a working code example.
* doc/architecture/locked-vs-flexible.md §8: chaining now flagged as
shipped via pipe; recommended posture says `.member()` chaining
only if a user pushes for the CGAL-canonical syntax.
* doc/roadmap/porting-status.md §5: API limitations table updated.
* doc/api/tests.md: CGALPhase8bLite row 15 → 17, total 232 → 234.

Closes the UX gap identified in the Phase-8b-Lite design discussion:
the four classical-DCE CGAL entries now optionally run their `*_layout()`
step internally if the caller supplies `CGAL::parameters::output_uv_map(pmap)`.
Before this PR, the workflow was:
auto res = CGAL::discrete_conformal_map_euclidean(mesh);
// ... user has to re-set up maps, re-pin vertex, then ...
auto layout = euclidean_layout(mesh, res.x, maps);
// ... and copy coordinates into a property map manually.
After this PR:
auto uv = mesh.add_property_map<Vertex_index, K::Point_2>("uv", ...).first;
CGAL::discrete_conformal_map_euclidean(
mesh, CGAL::parameters::output_uv_map(uv));
// ... uv now populated for every vertex.
Coverage
────────
* `discrete_conformal_map_euclidean` — `Point_2` per vertex.
* `discrete_conformal_map_spherical` — `Point_3` per vertex (on S²).
* `discrete_conformal_map_hyper_ideal` — `Point_2` per vertex (Poincaré disk).
CP-Euclidean and Inversive-Distance entries do not yet support
`output_uv_map` — face-based packing has no per-vertex UV concept, and
inversive-distance needs a dedicated layout routine that uses Luo's
edge-length formula (planned follow-up).
New named parameters (`code/include/CGAL/Conformal_map/internal/parameters.h`)
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
* `output_uv_map(pmap)` — write coordinates into pmap after layout.
* `normalise_layout(bool)` — apply post-layout canonical normalisation
(PCA centroid for Euclidean, north-pole alignment for Spherical,
Möbius centring for Hyper-ideal).
Both follow the existing Phase-8a-MVP named-parameter convention.
Chained syntax (`.output_uv_map(...).normalise_layout(true)`) is not
yet supported — pass them one at a time.
Tests (5 new in test_cgal_phase8b_lite.cpp)
───────────────────────────────────────────
* `OutputUvMap_Euclidean_PopulatesPmap` — UVs are finite + non-trivial.
* `OutputUvMap_Spherical_PopulatesXyz` — every output on unit S².
* `OutputUvMap_HyperIdeal_PointsInPoincareDisk` — |p|² ≤ 1 if converged.
* `OutputUvMap_Absent_DoesNotRunLayout` — no parameter ⇒ no layout.
* `OutputUvMap_NormaliseLayout_TakesEffect` — both raw + norm calls
return finite UVs (named-parameter chaining limitation documented).
All five pass. Full CGAL suite: 232/232, 0 skipped (was 227).

Updated the per-suite table to list the 7 CGAL test suites that landed
in v0.9.0 (8a MVP + 9a + 9b + 8b-Lite) but had not yet been added to the
canonical table. Total: 227 → 232. This brings the doc back in sync
with `ctest` output and unblocks future `scripts/check-test-counts.sh`
runs.

Closes the v0.9.0 release loop on top of Phase 9a-Newton + Phase 8b-Lite:
* CHANGELOG.md (NEW) — Keep-A-Changelog format, with v0.9.0 entry
detailing all Phase 9a / 9b / 8b-Lite contents and the doc-audit
corrections that landed via PR #10.
* CITATION.cff — version 0.7.0 → 0.9.0, date 2026-05-18 → 2026-05-22.
* Stale HDS-port stubs removed (13 GTEST_SKIPs total):
- code/tests/test_spherical_functional.cpp
- code/tests/test_hyper_ideal_functional.cpp
- code/tests/test_hyper_ideal_hyperelliptic_utility.cpp
These referenced a "HDS port (Phase 4)" that never happened —
CoHDS was intentionally replaced by CGAL::Surface_mesh, and the
functional tests live in code/tests/cgal/test_*_functional.cpp.
* Test-count updates everywhere:
- Non-CGAL 36 → 23 (drop = 13 deleted stubs)
- CGAL 176 → 227
- Total 212 → 250 (+38 net, 0 skipped)
