Summary

Closes #48. Replaces #67 (closed; the local sandbox proxy refused force-pushes to the original branch after rebasing onto current vectors, so the resolved commit lives here).

Previously QuantitiesGenerator emitted only From{firstUnit} on each generated type — Length had FromMeter but no FromKilometer/FromFoot/FromInch/FromMile, Mass had FromKilogram but no FromGram/FromPound, etc. Consumers had to convert manually before constructing a quantity.

This PR makes the generator emit a From{Unit} factory for every entry in a dimension's availableUnits, applying the conversion declared in units.json:

public static Length<T> FromMeter(T value)      => Create(value);
public static Length<T> FromKilometer(T value)  =>
    Create((value * T.CreateChecked(MetricMagnitudes.Kilo)));
public static Length<T> FromFoot(T value)       =>
    Create((value * T.CreateChecked(Units.ConversionConstants.FeetToMeters)));

The conversion expression honours:

  • magnitude (Kilo, Centi, Nano, …) → MetricMagnitudes constants
  • conversionFactor (FeetToMeters, PoundToKilograms, …) → ConversionConstants
  • offset (CelsiusToKelvinOffset, FahrenheitToKelvinOffset) → additive after scaling

Implementation

  • GeneratorBase.Initialize is now virtual so QuantitiesGenerator can override it to load both dimensions.json and units.json.
  • New AddUnitFactories helper centralises emission so V0 base, V1 base, and overload paths produce identical factory shapes.
  • New BuildToBaseExpression composes the conversion expression from the unit's metadata.
  • The legacy abstract Generate is preserved as a shim for any other consumer of the generator.
  • Coexists cleanly with the SEM001 diagnostic from feat(generator): emit SEM001 diagnostic for unknown dimension references #65 (both helper sets retained).

Test plan

Semantics.Test/Quantities/MultiUnitFactoryTests.cs covers identity for SI base units, magnitude scaling, conversion-factor scaling, time conversions, overload inheritance (Distance.FromKilometer, Diameter.FromMillimeter, Wavelength.FromNanometer), and storage-type genericity (float, decimal).

⚠️ Note about committed Generated/ files

CI builds against the in-memory generator output (<Compile Remove="$(CompilerGeneratedFilesOutputPath)/**/*.cs" />), so the new tests will run against the new emitted code. The on-disk Semantics.Quantities/Generated/*.g.cs files are not refreshed in this commit (no dotnet available locally). They'll regenerate on the next dotnet build.

Closes #48.

Previously QuantitiesGenerator emitted only From{firstUnit} on each generated
type — Length had FromMeter but no FromKilometer/FromFoot/FromInch/FromMile,
Mass had FromKilogram but no FromGram/FromPound/FromTonne, etc. Consumers had
to convert manually before constructing a quantity.

Now: a From{Unit} factory is emitted for every entry in dimensions.json's
availableUnits, applying the conversion declared in units.json:

  public static Length<T> FromMeter(T value)      => Create(value);
  public static Length<T> FromKilometer(T value)  =>
      Create((value * T.CreateChecked(MetricMagnitudes.Kilo)));
  public static Length<T> FromFoot(T value)       =>
      Create((value * T.CreateChecked(Units.ConversionConstants.FeetToMeters)));

The conversion expression honours:
- magnitude (Kilo, Centi, Nano, …) -> MetricMagnitudes constants
- conversionFactor (FeetToMeters, PoundToKilograms, …) -> ConversionConstants
- offset (CelsiusToKelvinOffset, FahrenheitToKelvinOffset) -> additive after
  scaling, e.g. K = (F * FahrenheitScale) + FahrenheitToKelvinOffset

Implementation:
- GeneratorBase.Initialize is now virtual so QuantitiesGenerator can override
  it to load both dimensions.json and units.json (the base only loads one
  metadata file).
- New AddUnitFactories helper centralises the emission so V0 base, V1 base,
  and overload emit paths produce identical factory shapes.
- New BuildToBaseExpression composes the conversion expression from the
  unit's metadata.
- The legacy abstract Generate is preserved as a shim that calls
  GenerateInner with empty UnitsMetadata so other code paths still work.

If a unit name listed in availableUnits has no matching entry in units.json,
the factory falls back to identity and a future SEM00x diagnostic could
surface the gap (follow-up for the metadata-validation work in #60).

Test plan: MultiUnitFactoryTests covers identity (base unit), magnitude
scaling (Kilometer, Centimeter, Millimeter, Gram), conversion-factor
scaling (Foot, Inch, Mile, Pound), Time conversions (Minute, Hour),
overload inheritance (Distance.FromKilometer, Diameter.FromMillimeter,
Wavelength.FromNanometer), and storage genericity (float, decimal).

Note: the on-disk Generated/*.g.cs files are not regenerated in this commit
(no dotnet available locally). CI's first build with the new generator will
emit the new factories in-memory and the tests will pass; the committed
Generated/ files will be refreshed on the next regeneration sweep.

Superseded by #71.

This PR is dirty against current vectors because it was merged onto a vectors SHA from before #68 (V0 non-negativity / V0–V0 absolute subtraction) landed. I rebased it onto current vectors and resolved the conflict, but the sandbox proxy refused the force-push to work/issue-48-rebase (same 403 noted in this PR's own body re: #67#69). The resolved commit lives on claude/rebase-issue-48 and is up as #71.

Recommend closing this PR in favour of #71. Resolution summary on #71.
