Subject: [PATCH] Reject .f3d import with a STEP redirect hint
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Fusion 360 .f3d uses Autodesk's closed ShapeManager kernel — no offline
reader exists and it is input-only even in Autodesk's own cloud API, so
native import/export is infeasible. Intercept .f3d at priv::load_files
(the single funnel for drag-drop and File > Open) and show a dialog
pointing the user to export STEP from Fusion, then load any other files
in the batch.
