chore: configure submodules to track main branch

Add branch = main to mods/silo and mods/ztools in .gitmodules.
Add branch = main to silo-client in mods/silo/.gitmodules.

Enables 'git submodule update --remote' to auto-advance Kindred
submodules to latest main. Third-party deps (GSL, googletest,
AddonManager) remain pinned.

Also updates submodule pointers to latest main commits.

 **Implementation:** `mods/sdk/kindred_sdk/` package with wrappers for editing contexts, theme tokens, FileOrigin registration, and dock panel creation. YAML-driven palette system (`palettes/catppuccin-mocha.yaml`) replaces hardcoded color dicts that were duplicated across 5+ locations.

+**Migration:** Silo has been migrated to use the SDK (#250) — it declares `<dependency>sdk</dependency>` and uses `kindred_sdk` for overlay registration and theme tokens. ztools has **not yet been migrated**: its `package.xml` lacks `<kindred>` metadata and its `InitGui.py` does not import from `kindred_sdk`. See KNOWN_ISSUES.md next step #9.

+6. **Assembly solver datum handling is minimal.** `UtilsAssembly.findPlacement()` handles standard shapes (faces, edges, vertices) and `App::Line` origin objects. It does not extract placement from `PartDesign::Plane` or `PartDesign::Point` datum objects — when no element is selected, it returns a default `App.Placement()`. This means assembly joints referencing datum planes/points may produce incorrect placement.
