Subject: [PATCH] feat(editor): auto-export WMO buildings as WOB placeholders
 on zone save
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Zone export now creates WOB placeholder files for all placed WMO
  buildings in output/MapName/buildings/
- Full WMO→WOB conversion (with geometry) requires group file loading
  which is complex — placeholders reserve the path structure for now
- All 6 format conversions now auto-run on every zone export:
  ADT→WOT/WHM, BLP→PNG, DBC→JSON, M2→WOM, WMO→WOB, WDT→zone.json
