Stratigraphy / Harris matrix

Native stratigraphic columns for geology and archaeology + Harris matrix for relative chronology. `type column` renders layers with thickness, colour, age labels, and depth ticks. `type harris` lays out context units in a DAG with `above` relationships, auto-levelling so each unit sits above whatever it physically overlies.
