Description

### Problem Description

I have three properties (ModelLabel, ModelReference and Manufacturer) under Pset_Pset_ManufacturerTypeInformation. When I export those properties using IFC4 schema, Revit creates 2 property sets with identical name (Pset_Pset_ManufacturerTypeInformation).
This is not allowed under the https://ifc43-docs.standards.buildingsmart.org/IFC/RELEASE/IFC4x3/HTML/lexical/IfcUniquePropertySetNames.htm

This causes issues when checking IFC using IDS.

Research direction

Start with the attached ModelLabel and ModelReference Revit.zip and reproduce an IFC4 export using Revit 2026.0.x and IFC for Revit 26.1.0. Inspect the resulting property sets and validate them with IDS; done means the three properties no longer produce duplicate Pset_Pset_ManufacturerTypeInformation sets and the IFC satisfies the unique-property-set-names requirement.
