.aep import/export: text animator Stroke Opacity and Source Text expressions (#3170) (#3305)

* #3170: .aep import of the text animator Stroke Opacity and the Source Text expression

ADBE Text Stroke Opacity maps to the animator's strokeOpacity (percent, as
After Effects shows it). The Source Text expression is imported like any
property's (Utf8 text, tdb4 bytes 119/120); one whose flags give no state
is still reported. New committed fixture text-synthetic.aep, made in After
Effects 2026 with the working space None.

* #3170: .aep export of the Source Text expression and the text animator Stroke Opacity

The Source Text expression is written enabled or disabled as After Effects
stores it (tdb4 bytes 119/120, Utf8 after cdat); a disabled one is no longer
dropped without a report. strokeOpacity is written as ADBE Text Stroke
Opacity with the record After Effects wrote in text-synthetic.aep. A test
exports the fixture and imports it again.
