Dolphin with eyes generated by Beantextures, with the 'closest' interpolation option

TL;DR: Beantextures v1.1.0 introduces the often requested image node settings (interpolation, projection, extension), optional vector input, and improvements of node regeneration behavior. It also comes with numerous of bug fixes to improve the stability of the add-on.

new features:

• generated nodes are tagged as image node (orange)
• support modifying image node properties for node group generation. this can be accessed in node links configuration or when importing images through the side (N) panel of the file browser.
• support vector input for generated node group. can be turned on for generated nodes by ticking on "input vector" option under configuration options. note that you must then explicitly provide vector data (e.g from a UV map), otherwise, the texture won't render.
• full support for node connection preservation after re-generating Beantextures node group. previously, this only included the Value (which was broken as well), Image, and Alpha.

fixes:

• check for links length for polling removal ops
• fix string use-after-free issue in use of EnumProperty
• set default value of alpha input to 1.0
• race condition when deleting sockets upon node group generation
• node connection to Value input not preserved
• prevent user from using reserved socket name as link name

Changelog

fix(es):

• make sure to delete registered properties
• remove the usage of layout_type when rendering
• do not duplicate node interfaces upon re-generation
• do not allow users to delete link when link list is empty
• remove unused import
