Goal

Addons register dock panel factories via C++ interface with PySide widget bridging.

New files

  • src/Gui/SDK/IPanelProvider.h — Abstract interface: id(), title(), create_widget() (pure virtual); preferred_area(), persistence(), context_affinity() (defaults)
  • src/Gui/SDK/WidgetBridge.h/.cpp — PySide QWidget <-> C++ QWidget* conversion via Gui::PythonWrapper
  • src/Gui/SDK/bindings/PyIPanelProvider.h — Trampoline class
  • src/Gui/SDK/bindings/PyProviderHolder.h — GIL-safe forwarding wrapper

Modified files

  • src/Gui/SDK/Types.h — Add DockArea, PanelPersistence enums
  • src/Gui/SDK/SDKRegistry.h/.cpp — Add register_panel(), unregister_panel(), create_panel()
  • src/Gui/SDK/bindings/kcsdk_py.cpp — Bind IPanelProvider with trampoline
  • mods/sdk/kindred_sdk/dock.py — Rewrite to use kcsdk.register_panel()

Depends on #350. Part of the KCSDK epic (#346). Phase 3 of 8.
