Thorsten Bus 9e3e719806 feat(library): add readers + writers for all ProPresenter global libraries and theme bundles
Add full IO support for every global ProPresenter library file plus
theme folders, and extend the existing Labels/Macros readers with
exporters and editable accessors so every supported document is now a
round-trippable, mutable object.

New library readers/writers (each: FileReader, FileWriter, Library
wrapper, element wrapper where applicable, CLI tool, tests, doc/api/*.md):

- Groups          (ProGroupsDocument)        + GroupDefinition
- ClearGroups     (ClearGroupsDocument)      + ClearGroupDefinition
- CCLI            (CCLIDocument)
- Messages        (MessageDocument)          + Message
- Timers          (TimersDocument + Clock)   + Timer
- Stage           (Stage.Document)           + StageLayout
- Workspace       (ProPresenterWorkspace)    + Screen
- Props           (PropDocument)             + Prop
- TestPatterns    (TestPatternDocument)
- Calendar        (new CalendarDocument)     + CalendarEvent
- KeyMappings     (new KeyMappingsDocument)  + KeyMapping
- CommunicationDevices (JSON file)           + CommunicationDevice
- Theme bundles   (Template.Document folder + Assets/) + ThemeBundle/Slide/Asset

Extensions to existing modules:

- LabelsFileWriter; Label and LabelLibrary gain setters, addLabel,
  removeLabel, setColor / setColorHex helpers
- MacrosFileWriter; Macro/MacroCollection/MacroLibrary gain UUID, name,
  color, image_type, image_data, trigger_on_startup setters plus
  add/remove for macros and collections

Two new minimal proto schemas were defined for documents that lacked
upstream definitions:

- proto/calendar.proto   - CalendarDocument with Event entries, raw
  bytes for the action/macro sub-messages so the schema can evolve
- proto/keyMappings.proto - KeyMappingsDocument with ApplicationInfo
  and a forward-looking Mapping message (sample only carries the info)

The Theme file turned out to be a regular Rv\Data\Template\Document, so
no new proto was required for theme content; ThemeBundle layers folder
+ Assets/ handling on top in the same spirit as PresentationBundle.

GroupDefinition is intentionally distinct from the existing Group class
(which wraps song-level CueGroup) to avoid breaking song APIs.

Verified with the full PHPUnit suite: 370 tests, 9200 assertions, all
green; LSP diagnostics clean across src/. The unmodified reference
samples for Labels, Groups, ClearGroups, TestPatterns, Calendar and
KeyMappings round-trip byte-for-byte; the others round-trip with the
same byte length (PHP protobuf is not canonically deterministic but
re-write-after-write stabilises).

doc/INDEX.md, doc/keywords.md and AGENTS.md updated so every new module
is discoverable from the top level.

# Props Library API
> PHP module for reading, modifying, and writing the global ProPresenter `Props` file.
## Quick Reference
```php
use ProPresenter\Parser\PropsFileReader;
use ProPresenter\Parser\PropsFileWriter;
$library = PropsFileReader::read('/path/to/Props');
foreach ($library->getProps() as $prop) {
$prop->getName();
$prop->getUuid();
$prop->isEnabled();
}
PropsFileWriter::write($library, '/path/to/Props');
```
---
## File Layout
The `Props` file is `Rv\Data\PropDocument` from `propDocument.proto`.
Each prop is stored as a `Rv\Data\Cue` in the document's `cues` field.
---
## PropLibrary
```php
$library->getDocument();
$library->getProps();
$library->getPropByUuid('1FB2...'); // case-insensitive
$library->getPropByName('Props #1');
$library->addProp($prop);
$library->removeProp($uuid);
$library->count();
$library->getApplicationInfo();
```
---
## Prop
```php
$prop->getName();
$prop->setName('Lower Third');
$prop->getUuid();
$prop->setUuid('...');
$prop->isEnabled();
$prop->setEnabled(true);
$prop->getCompletionTime();
$prop->getActions();
$prop->getProto();
```
Use `getProto()` for full Cue/action access.
---
## CLI Tool
```bash
php bin/parse-props.php /path/to/Props
```
---
