Consistency and Transactions in CAD Database

Summary: Models CAD design objects as multi-representation, multi-version entities with derived dependencies, enabling consistency only at design completion. Introduces CAD-specific transactions, global consistency rules, version-concurrency control, and a consistency manager. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
