Khalim Conn-Kowlessar 8bf7bd116d Convert external-measurement dimensions to internal per RdSAP Table 2 🟩
A cert lodging its horizontal dimensions measured externally
(measurement_type=2) must have its floor area and exposed perimeter converted to
internal dimensions before any SAP use (RdSAP 10 §3.4 + Table 2, p.17-18).
measurement_type was read nowhere (the `# What is this?` field), so external
certs carried a TFA ~11-15% too large — inflating occupancy and understating
every per-m2 output (CO2/m2, PE/m2).

Plumb measurement_type onto EpcPropertyData, and add a post-mapping
_with_internal_dimensions step: compute ONE whole-dwelling area/perimeter ratio
from the ground-floor footprint via the Table 2 built-form equation (§3.4 Note 4
— not a per-storey conversion, which over-corrects multi-part mid-terraces),
apply it to every storey's area/perimeter, reduce party walls by 2w (Note 5),
and refresh total_floor_area_m2 (read for occupancy N). Wall thickness w is the
lodged main-dwelling value, else the Table 3 default (p.19). Room-in-roof floor
area is always internal (§3.1) and left untouched. Scoped to the RdSAP-Schema
reduced-data family (17.0-21.x) where per-storey external dims are the lodgement
standard; legacy SAP-Schema-15.0/16.x are plumbed but not converted.

Corpus: within-0.5 81.0% -> 81.2%, MAE 0.571 -> 0.570, PE 2.5 -> 2.4. Cert
100091435353 TFA 128.7 -> 111.6 (lodged 112), SAP 66.23 -> 65.33 (+1.2 -> +0.3);
mean |dSAP vs lodged| over the 12 external certs 0.556 -> 0.429. Closes #1669.
