Add Blender scene export for the 3D Camera Tracker

Add Blender scene export for the 3D Camera Tracker ## Summary Related to #986. This is a tracker-camera handoff, not a general composition/3D-layer exporter, so it does not close the broader request. The 3D Camera Tracker can create a camera inside EffectCraft, but cannot currently transfer its solved motion to Blender. Add **Export Scene to Blender...** to the effect controls and the agent-drivable `camera.exportBlender` command. The export is a standalone Python script using Blender's public API; running it creates a new scene while preserving existing scenes and objects. - Bake camera position, quaternion rotation, and focal length on ev

Writing uses the host's atomic file service.+Export is limited to 100,000 analyzed frames, 100,000 points and 64 MiB of serialized scene data;+invalid, stale or incomplete solves return an actionable error without modifying the document.++## Verification++Engine tests check argument validation, escaped/Unicode paths, fractional FPS, trim/stretch,+focus/f-stop, zoom, ground placement, malformed solves and write failures.
