feat(plugin): add layer creation and modification host API

- Add LayerConfig struct and add_layer / modify_layer methods to HostApi trait
- Implement IPC request/response serialization for AddLayer and ModifyLayer
- Implement HostSession methods with CAD property defaults and selective modification
- Refresh layer panel UI and invalidate scene layer dependencies upon layer changes
- Add unit tests for add_layer with defaults and partial modify_layer
