Parse, edit, write

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let mut doc = PcbFile::read("input.kicad_pcb")?;

    doc.set_version(20260101)
        .set_generator("kiutils")
        .set_generator_version("dev")
        .set_title("Demo Board")
        .upsert_property("Owner", "Milind")
        .remove_property("Obsolete");

    doc.write("output.kicad_pcb")?;
