Lagrange Release 6.46.0

Infrastructure

• 📌 Update imgui (1.91.5 → 1.92.8), polyscope, and imguizmo, and add implot: fixes the polyscope Isosurface mode.

Core Module

• 🎨 Improve meshstat: facet-type counts, Euler characteristic, and UV attribute cleanup.
• 🎨 Add vertex-connectivity support to compute_facet_facet_adjacency.

UV & Atlas

• ✨ Add the lagrange::xatlas module: wraps jpcy/xatlas (MIT) for UV unwrapping and atlas repacking; provides unwrap/repack for mesh and scene, a reusable AtlasEngine, multi-atlas (UDIM) policies, and Python bindings.

Sampling Module

• ✨ New sampling module: random_sample_uniform and random_sample_blue_noise.

Bug Fixes

• 🐛 Fix a mesh_viewer crash for meshes with edge attributes: install a polyscope edge permutation before registering edge-valued quantities.

• 🐛 Fix a dangling external texture reference in embedded glTF export: drop the source uri when embedding so .glb files are self-contained.
• 🐛 Remap invalid indexed-attribute indices to a dummy sentinel value to avoid a weld_indexed_attribute crash.
