C3D-0385 · Move SEWER_* E1 objects to standard SEWER_* layers, delete E1 layers [C3D-E1MOVE] done

Moves each E1 layer's top-level objects to its standard counterpart (SEWER_LINE E1->SEWER_LINE, SEWER_LINE_TEXT E1->SEWER_LINE_TEXT, SEWER_MANHOLE E1->SEWER_MANHOLE, SEWER_MANHOLE_TEXT E1->SEWER_MANHOLE_TEXT), sends the 2 in-block symbol guts to layer 0, then deletes the emptied E1 layers. Verifies each standard layer's new count.

C# payload

// Move each SEWER_* E1 layer's objects to its standard SEWER_* layer, then delete the emptied
// E1 layers. In-block symbol guts go to "0" (stay connected to their insert). E1 top-level
// entities go to the standard layer.
