fence to ```python while preserving the example content.

- Line 1746: Update the layer insertion flow around target.insert_layer so
public position values are translated for the GIMP 3 binding: map -1 to 0, map 0
to the target’s bottom insertion index, and preserve other positions as
appropriate. After insertion, return target.get_item_position(layer) rather than
the input sentinel.
- Around line 1746-1754: Wrap the scaling and offset operations following
target.insert_layer in a try/except block, and remove the inserted layer from
target if any of those operations raises before re-raising the exception. Track
successful insertion as needed, while preserving the existing scale behavior and
ensuring cleanup occurs before the undo group is ended.

Add a language identifier to the fenced block.
The new fence triggers markdownlint rule MD040. Mark the example as Python.

Translate the public position values before insertion.
The direct GIMP 3 Image.insert_layer() binding numbers positions from the top: 0 is top, while -1 inserts above the active layer. The unchanged value therefore makes public 0 insert at the top and public -1 active-layer-relative instead of top. Map -1 to 0, map 0 to the target's bottom insertion index, and return target.get_item_position(layer) instead of the input sentinel.

Remove the inserted layer when a later step fails.
target.undo_group_end() closes the undo group; it does not roll back its operations. If scaling or layer.set_offsets() raises, the error response returns while the inserted layer remains in target. Remove layer in the exception path before ending the undo group.
