feat: Add E11 Part Mass extractor, document pyNastran mass accuracy issue

New E11 Part Mass Extractor:
- Add nx_journals/extract_part_mass_material.py - NX journal using
  NXOpen.MeasureManager.NewMassProperties() for accurate geometry-based mass
- Add optimization_engine/extractors/extract_part_mass_material.py - Python
  wrapper that reads JSON output from journal
- Add E11 entry to extractors/catalog.json

Documentation Updates:
- SYS_12_EXTRACTOR_LIBRARY.md: Add mass accuracy warning noting pyNastran
  get_mass_breakdown() under-reports ~7% on hex-dominant meshes with
  tet/pyramid fill elements. E11 (geometry .prt) should be preferred over
  E4 (BDF) unless material is overridden at FEM level.
- 01_CHEATSHEET.md: Add mass extraction tip

V14 Config:
- Expand design variable bounds (blank_backface_angle max 4.5°,
  whiffle_triangle_closeness max 80mm, whiffle_min max 60mm)

Testing showed:
- E11 from .prt: 97.66 kg (accurate - matches NX GUI)
- E4 pyNastran get_mass_breakdown(): 90.73 kg (~7% under-reported)
