Closes #1599

Overview

integrate() accepted quadrature_rule and order but ignored them: #1379 switched to the cached face_areas property, which is always triangular/order 4. Reuse the cache only for those defaults and compute fresh areas otherwise, matching calculate_total_face_area().

None keeps selecting the default for both kwargs, as it did when they were ignored.

UxDataset.integrate() now computes areas once and raises on a bad rule/order instead of skipping every variable.

What changed in this PR

Restores quadrature selection in UxDataArray.integrate() to address #1599 while preserving cached face areas for default settings.

Changes:

• Computes fresh face areas for non-default quadrature rules or orders.
• Documents quadrature options and HEALPix behavior.
• Adds tests for parameter handling, default results, and lazy integration.

File	Description
uxarray/​core/​dataset.py	Clarifies quadrature parameter documentation.
uxarray/​core/​dataarray.py	Honors quadrature arguments and documents area selection.
test/​grid/​integrate/​test_basic.py	Adds quadrature and lazy-execution regression tests.

Good catch — DataCenteringError and DimensionError both inherit from ValueError, so the broad handler also swallowed quadrature validation failures. Narrowed the catch to those two expected skip cases and added a dataset-level regression test asserting that an invalid order propagates. Fixed in ba9e5c5; the focused integration tests pass.
