demo video: a horizontal cantilever, checked against beam theory

The demo used the corpus I-beam, which is extruded along z and so stood
upright. A new corpus part, cantilever-i-beam, is the same section on the
YZ plane extruded along x, web upright: a sweep along a horizontal axis
for the meshers, and a cantilever that bends downward on screen. The
i-beam part is unchanged (its corpus row and the meshing tests keep it).

The demo clamps it at x = 0 and loads the free end with 1000 N in -z
through a kinematic coupling, and now checks the solution against beam
theory and stops when it is off: tip deflection (bending plus shear)
within 3 %, root bending stress (stress_xx along the top flange,
extrapolated to the root, nodes from the Abaqus deck) within 2 %.

docs/meshing/corpus.md regenerated with the new part.

- `bent-tube`: A 10 mm tube with a 1 mm wall, bent through R30: a thin-walled sweep along a line-arc-line path.
- `bolted-assembly`: A base plate with a clamp block component placed twice, once turned 90 degrees: bodies placed by component transforms.
- `cantilever-i-beam`: The 200 mm I-beam of `i-beam` lying along X with its web upright (Z up): a sweep along a horizontal axis, and the cantilever of the README demo.
- `cross-cylinders`: Two orthogonal R10 cylinders joined: equal radii, so the intersection curves cross at two singular points.
- `filleted-bracket`: An 8 mm L-bracket with an R6 inside fillet and a hole through each leg: a blend beside holes.
- `i-beam`: A 200 mm I-beam with 3 mm flanges and a 2 mm web: a long sweepable prism with thin walls.
