PURPOSE: Connects the shape to its vector layer so it can access layer-level context such as fields, styling, coordinate system information, and rendering behavior.

BEHAVIOR: References the owning TGIS_LayerVector instance. When assigned, the shape can resolve layer-managed properties and participate in layer workflows.

CONSTRAINTS: May be nil for standalone shapes. Ownership and lifetime are managed by the layer framework.
