Subject: [PATCH] feat(open): drag & drop files onto the window (#344)

Dropping a supported file (dwg / dxf / bak / sv$, case-insensitive)
opens it through the existing open flow: an already-open drawing
switches to its tab, a load in progress queues the drop behind it
(multi-file drops arrive one event each), anything unsupported reports
on the command line instead of failing silently in the parser.

Platform support follows winit 0.30: Windows, macOS and Linux/X11
(incl. XWayland) deliver FileDropped; the Wayland backend does not
implement file drag & drop yet, so drops are inert there until winit
gains it.

Closes #344
