Description
In our internal project we've edited the StringTable and SpanType using declarations in InputIfc to remove const, but long term we'd like to see a principled approach offered by the IFC SDK.

Research direction
Start by examining the IFC SDK's InputIfc declarations and how StringTable and SpanType are exposed. Compare the current const-removal workaround with the SDK's intended interfaces, then determine the structured write-access design needed. Done means clients can modify these structures through a supported SDK approach without editing declarations locally.
