Convert nesting relationships to aggregate relationships

Some software like Revit won’t load nested children elements because they (incorrectly) don’t consider it to be part of the spatial tree. For example, 12D software will use nesting.

This patch converts all nest relationships into aggregate relationships.

See bug: https://github.com/Autodesk/revit-ifc/issues/706

Example:

ifcpatch.execute({"input": "input.ifc", "file": model, "recipe": "ConvertNestToAggregate", "arguments": []})
patch()
