PR: Incorrect IFC Export: (instance) + (type) produces invalid IFC Predefined type #964

Problem Description

When exporting a Revit model to IFC4x3, using:

Export As (instance parameter)
Export Type as IFC (type parameter)

It produces invalid IFC files that fail validation in buildingSMART’s Validation Service.
The issue appears to be caused by incorrect and duplicated generation of both IFC instances and IFC type objects.
