clocklear 5d15a1fd82 Organize projects into folders with READMEs and preview renders.
Move the Ring solar siding adapter into its own directory, add repo and
project documentation, and introduce a preview script (OpenSCAD+xvfb or
PyVista fallback) for catalog images.

"""Render a preview PNG for an OpenSCAD project folder.
Prefers OpenSCAD's native PNG export (needs a display or xvfb-run). Falls back
to PyVista offscreen rendering from an exported STL (no display required).
Usage:
python3 scripts/render-preview.py ring-solar-siding-adapter
python3 scripts/render-preview.py ring-solar-siding-adapter --output custom.png
Dependencies (fallback path only):
pip install pyvista
sudo apt install xvfb # optional, enables native OpenSCAD PNG export
