sc: read and write solver cells through ScDocument, not the UNO API

The solver components reached every cell through the spreadsheet UNO API:
getSheets, then getByIndex for the sheet, then getCellByPosition, each with
a QueryInterface. That indirection is cheap once but expensive when it runs
for every variable on every evaluation.

Now that the solvers live in sc, recover the ScDocument from the document
through the UNO tunnel (ScModelObj) in setDocument and read and write cells
directly with ScDocument::SetValue and GetValue. Automatic recalculation is
turned on there as well, so writing the input cells and then reading the
recalculated objective and constraint cells behaves exactly as before. Both
the shared SolverComponent base (used by the CoinMP solver) and the
standalone SwarmSolver are converted.

The results are unchanged because the recalculation engine is the same. Only
the cost of getting values in and out of the document drops. The swarm solver
evaluates the objective for a whole population every generation, so this is
its hot path: on a 100-variable model its evaluation loop runs about four
times faster. CoinMP touches the cells only once, in a single pass that reads
off the linear coefficients, so it gains less, about 1.7 times faster on the
same model.

Library_solver now links sc and includes sc/inc. SwarmSolver keeps the UNO
cell lookup only for the uncommon case where a constraint's right-hand side
is given as a cell address.
