Description
### Problem Description
I have discovered that export from RVT 2025 does not include these mapped attributes of **IfcBuilding**:
- Long name
- Description
- Object Type
Using shared parameters, does not work at all at RVT 2025 using latest release of Plugin (25.2.0.5)
- BuildingLongName
- BuildingDescription
- BuildingObjectType
In RVT2024 it works prefectly well!
In RVT2025 there is one extra parameter in Export Setup that is not in 2024. Is that possible that this is the case of incorrect export?
Attached RVT24 + RVT25 files + IFCs of both in 2x3 and 4x3:

### Revit Version

### IFC for Revit Addon Version
24.x.x
### Windows Version

Research direction
Start with the attached RVT-IfcBuilding-Bug.zip and compare the RVT 2024 and RVT 2025 IFC exports, focusing on IfcBuilding Long name, Description, and Object Type. Inspect the RVT 2025 Export Setup and the shared parameters BuildingLongName, BuildingDescription, and BuildingObjectType; done means these attributes export correctly in the affected RVT 2025 cases as they do in RVT 2024.
