Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 5 799f840218 Thicken Surface: fill the corners of a closed-loop wall
snaporca-wm4s. Thickening the 4-walled open box (60x60 in plan, 40 tall, no caps)
by 5 produced volume 29648.15 where the geometry requires (60^2-50^2)*40 = 44000
— about 67% of it. The corner material at the four vertical edges was simply
absent.

CAUSE. MakeThickSolidBySimple offsets each face along its own normal and sews;
it never extends neighbours to meet, so wherever two faces join at an angle the
corner is empty. A flat sheet has no such join and was always exact (18000.000),
which is why the defect looked like a measurement artefact.

WHY THE TWO EARLIER ATTEMPTS COULD NOT HAVE WORKED. Both switched to ByJoin —
plain, then with Intersection/GeomAbs_Intersection — and both returned a shell,
not a solid, so the body lost its volume entirely and both were reverted. That is
not a parameter problem: in OCCT, BRepOffset_MakeOffset::MakeThickSolid builds a
solid only inside `if (!myFaces.IsEmpty())` (BRepOffset_MakeOffset.cxx:1115).
Handed an open sheet with no closing faces, it stops after the offset shell and
returns it, reporting IsDone() with a non-null shape containing no TopAbs_SOLID.
ByJoin hollows a CLOSED solid by removing faces; an open sheet is outside its
contract.

FIX. Close the sheet, then use the call that mitres: cap the free rims
(ShapeAnalysis_FreeBounds -> MakeFace), sew shell+caps into a closed shell, make
a solid, and hollow it inward passing the caps as the faces to remove — the caps
come back off and leave the wall. Two details, each found by measurement rather
than reasoning:

* A shell sewn from an extruded sheet carries no guarantee of outward
  orientation, and MakeSolid does not fix it. Inside-out, the inward offset goes
  OUTWARD: measured bbox 70x70x40 and volume 339141.59, larger than its own
  bounding box because the result overlaps itself. A negative GProp mass is
  exactly that inversion, so it is the test; Reverse() on it.
* A SINGLE face has no neighbour to mitre and must keep the BySimple path. It
  does have a free boundary, so "has free wires" is the wrong question — capping
  a lone face with its own rim sews a zero-thickness shell and measures 6000
  against 18000.

Also: IsDone() is not a success test here, since both failed attempts had it
true. The code now explores for TopAbs_SOLID and refuses a shell.

Tests: new case asserts 44000 with the wall's bbox at 60x60x40 (catching the
inverted-orientation shape, which has the right volume nowhere near the right
place), plus the flat-sheet control at 18000 that must not regress. Full kernel
suite green: 2502 assertions in 187 test cases.
