I haven't followed the thread closely, but I would tackle the above by first
using group-starting with to build the levels

<xsl:for-each-group select="*" group-starting-with="*[@level='1']">

applied recursively if necessary for each level, giving

<p type="li" container="ol" level="1">
  <p type="p" container="li" level="2">
</p>
<p type="li" container="ol" level="1">
  <p type="p" container="li" level="2">
</p>
<p type="li" container="ul" level="1">
  <p type="p" container="li" level="2">
</p>

and then apply group-adjacent to the level 1's (and perhaps recursively to
each level?):

<xsl:for-each-group select="*" group-adjacent="@container">
  <xsl:element name="{current-grouping-key()}">
    <xsl:copy-of select="current-group()"/>
  </
</

to give your required structure, with a bit of trivial tweaking needed to
change <p type="li"> to <li>.
