Khalim Conn-Kowlessar 57fbf83b1e Slice S0380.18: u_party_wall flat default per RdSAP10 Table 15 footnote*
Closes cert 0036-6325-1100-0063-1226 (the cohort's first FLAT fixture)
from Δ -0.3737 → +0.2987 by applying the RdSAP 10 Table 15 footnote *
rule: flats/maisonettes with unknown party-wall construction default
to U=0.0 W/m²K (both sides are heated dwellings, no heat loss).

Worksheet dr87-0001-000910.pdf line ref (32) lodges:
    Party walls Main   24.13 m²   U=0.00   A×U = 0.0000 W/K
matching the Table 15 footnote *. The cascade was applying the U=0.25
*house* default to this lodging because:
  - Elmhurst Summary lodged `party_wall_type='U Unable to determine'`
  - mapper translated it to `party_wall_construction=0` (the cross-
    mapper-parity "unknown" sentinel)
  - `u_party_wall(0)` fell through to `return 0.25` (the final-branch
    default — same path as `u_party_wall(None)`)

That produced cascade `party_walls_w_per_k = 24.13 × 0.25 = 6.03` W/K
of heat-loss excess, propagating through (39) HTC → (97)..(98c) space
heat demand → (211) main fuel kWh → (255) total cost → (257) ECF →
(258) SAP rating. Net effect: cascade SAP 62.3734 vs worksheet 62.7471.

Two-part fix:

1. `domain/sap10_ml/rdsap_uvalues.py:u_party_wall` — add
   `is_flat: bool = False` keyword argument. When True AND
   `party_wall_construction in (None, 0)` (both the API-mapper None
   path and the Elmhurst-mapper 0 sentinel for "Unable to determine"),
   return 0.0 instead of the house default 0.25. Spec citation: RdSAP
   10 Table 15 footnote * ("for flats and maisonettes with unknown
   party-wall construction").

2. `domain/sap10_calculator/worksheet/heat_transmission.py` — wire
   the cascade to pass `is_flat=_is_flat_or_maisonette(epc.property
   _type)`. Adds a new helper `_is_flat_or_maisonette` distinct from
   the existing `_is_house` (which excludes bungalows from
   *cantilever* detection — bungalows ARE houses for party-wall
   purposes per the spec). The new helper checks both the descriptive
   form ("Flat" / "Maisonette") and the SAP schema enum-as-string
   form ("2" / "3" — per `datatypes/epc/domain/epc_codes.csv
   property_type` rows: 0=House, 1=Bungalow, 2=Flat, 3=Maisonette,
   4=Park home).

The schema-enum collision was the bug-fix-with-a-bug: an initial
implementation used "1"/"2" (Flat/Maisonette per intuition) but those
are actually Bungalow/Flat per the schema, which routed all 10
bungalow certs onto the flat path. Corrected pre-commit.

Cohort-2 Summary-path delta after slice:

  cert 0036  (Flat)      Δ -0.3737  →  Δ +0.2987   ✓ improved by +0.67
  10 bungalow certs                  unchanged (correctly NOT flat)
  5 non-flat house certs in band     unchanged (different root cause —
                                     next slice)

Bungalow certs (cohort 1 + 2) verified unchanged at delta ≤ +0.04 each.

Tests added (5):
- `test_u_party_wall_unknown_for_flat_returns_table15_footnote_zero`
  pins the spec rule on the helper.
- `test_u_party_wall_unknown_sentinel_zero_treated_as_unknown_for_flat`
  pins the Elmhurst-mapper `0` sentinel parity.
- `test_u_party_wall_known_solid_still_returns_zero_when_is_flat_false`
  pins precedence: explicit Solid code overrides the is_flat flag.
- `test_summary_0036_flat_unknown_party_wall_routes_to_u_zero` chain-
  test through `from_elmhurst_site_notes` + cert_to_inputs +
  calculate_sap_from_inputs to assert `party_walls_w_per_k == 0` at
  1e-4 tolerance.

Pyright net-zero per file:
- domain/sap10_ml/rdsap_uvalues.py: 1 (baseline 1)
- domain/sap10_calculator/worksheet/heat_transmission.py: 13 (baseline 13)
- domain/sap10_ml/tests/test_rdsap_uvalues.py: 66 (baseline 66)
- backend/documents_parser/tests/test_summary_pdf_mapper_chain.py: 0

Regression baseline: 698 pass + 10 fail (= prior 694 + 10 + 4 new).

Note: the remaining +0.2987 residual on cert 0036 is in (30) external
roof — worksheet lodges Ext1 flat roof Plasterboard insulated U=2.30
giving 2.51 W/K; cascade has roof_w_per_k=0 (Ext1 roof contribution
missing). Separate slice.

Spec refs:
- RdSAP 10 Table 15 ("U-values of party walls") row 4 — house unknown
  default 0.25 W/m²K.
- RdSAP 10 Table 15 footnote * — flat/maisonette unknown default
  0.0 W/m²K.
- `datatypes/epc/domain/epc_codes.csv` rows
  `property_type,{0..4},...` — SAP/RdSAP schema property-type enum.
