Replace internal jargon and uncommon words in user-facing strings (better for
non-native English readers): drop "TransformRegistry-driven" / "drives
transforms" from the connect/set-connector-type subtitles; "transform lookup"
→ "tells connect how to wire its pins"; "populate pin specs" → "fills in each
pin's role and direction"; "clear the visualization area" → "clear the console
output"; "materialised" → "added"; refresh the verify description. Regenerated
commands.md.

DESIGN.md: libbsdl dependency and --batch headless mode; bsdl_model/bsdl_check
in the layout; the attach-bsdl command and the `B` persist tag; PinSpec is now
BSDL-populated; verify's five passes incl. the model-driven and JTAG checks
and the new AnomalyKinds. README: libbsdl dependency, --batch usage, tutorial
link. New doc/user/tutorial.md: end-to-end batch and TUI walkthroughs (load →
tag → connect → attach-bsdl → verify, with the pin/JTAG findings explained).
Regenerated commands.md (adds attach-bsdl); index.md links the tutorial.

New user-facing features:
- `export connections <file>` writes a tabular dump of every wire pair:
connection, transform, left/right module/part/pin/signal/type/suspect,
mixed-types flag. Dispatch on extension: `.csv` (flat file) or `.ods`
(one sheet per connection). Any other extension shows an error and
writes nothing.
- Bare `export` (or dashboard `[x]`, or palette `export`) opens an
interactive file-picker dialog with a CSV/ODS toggle at the top.
Picking a filter rewrites the filename's extension. Last-used
directory and filename are remembered per-call-site.
- Two new CLI flags on the binary: `--source FILE` to run a script at
boot, `--restore FILE` to restore a snapshot at boot. Combinable.
Reusable infrastructure:
- `OdsWriter` (`src/imports/ods_writer.{hpp,cpp}`): minimal .ods writer
using libzip + pugixml (already in the build for the importer).
Multi-sheet workbook of string cells. ~180 lines, no new dep.
- Generic file-picker dialog (`screen_filedialog.cpp`): one Modal
reused for any "pick a path" interaction via
`OpenFileDialog(title, persist_key, default_filename, filters, cb)`.
Validates the picked extension against the filter whitelist;
unknown ones stay in the dialog with a status message. Persists
(dir, filename) per `persist_key`.
- Generic error modal (`screen_error.cpp`, `ShowError(msg)`): centred
red-titled popup, dismissable with Esc/Enter. Used by the export
failures (open-for-write, ODS save, unknown extension/kind);
ready for adoption elsewhere.
- Per-key path persistence (`SaveLastUsed`/`LoadLastUsed` in
`shell.cpp`): two-line file per key under the user-data dir.
- `UserDataDir()` extracted from the history path helper so the new
per-key persistence shares the same XDG/AppData logic.
- New help-screen topic "Export"; user-facing `doc/user/analysis.md`
gains an "Exporting" section; `DESIGN.md` gains a generics
section covering the dialog / error modal / persistence / ODS
writer; `DumpCommandsMd` now respects the `hidden` flag (the
`connect` alias no longer appears in the auto-gen reference).

- `essim --commands-md [file]` instantiates the Tui, calls
`Tui::DumpCommandsMd(ostream&)` which iterates the live registry and
emits Markdown grouped by interactive/other, then exits. Single
source of truth: a new `CommandSpec` field surfaces automatically.
- CMake `doc` target now `DEPENDS essim` and chains:
doxygen → gen_api_md.py → doc/api/
essim --commands-md → doc/user/commands.md
- `doc/user/` adds:
- index.md (hand-written) — first session, interactive-screen
conventions, save/restore/replay overview.
- scripting.md (hand-written) — `set`/`$var` expansion semantics,
`source` event-paced execution, script-save denylist, worked
example pointing at test/system.essim.
- commands.md (auto-generated, regenerated by the `doc` target).
- Top-level README refocused on quick start; pointers to the new
doc tree (user/, api/, DESIGN.md) instead of an inline command table.
- doc/README.md and DESIGN.md document the two-pipeline doc workflow.
- `test/system.essim` and user docs anonymised: bkp → backplane,
vdn1/2/3 → payload1/2/3, cb3p → payload4, bpb/cob/ssu →
peripheral1/2/3; netlist file names + variable names + paths all
replaced with generic equivalents.
