Class CompactReportSerializer

Serializes a Report into a compact text DSL for LLM instance context. Only properties present in the schemaContext (ReportContextBuilder allowed properties) are emitted, so the AI designer does not see properties it cannot edit. Only non-default property values are emitted to reduce token usage. Font names are always included (Report Manager has no parent-font inheritance).
