This removes the "Geometry" part from their name because we want to use them in
other node tree types too (see #141936).
Usually, we don't change idnames because they are the primary identifier of
nodes and is expected to stay the same. Since they are generally not shown to
users (just Python developers), it's also not urgent to change them. However, in
this specific case we have the opportunity to update the idname before the node
becomes an official feature, so it's not as bad to change it.
This patch has full backward compatibility, but no forward compatibility (for
files that used the experimental feature).

When using link-drag-search to create bundle or closure nodes, the newly created
nodes are already synced automatically. Now this automatic syncing also happens
when an empty node is first linked. If there are any sockets already, the
automatic syncing does not happen as it can be unintentional. In this case the
user can just click the sync icon in the node header to update the sockets.

This moves code used for tracing bundles and closures to a separate file. This
code is used to e.g. detect which Separate Bundle node a Combine Bundle node is
linked to. This allows providing automatic socket update operators for these
nodes. Similarly for closures.

This moves most of the code to deal with syncable nodes (such as
Combine/Separate Bundle) to the nodes module. Over time it might be possible to
decentralize it more.
This also changes the caching mechanism from storing a flag on the node to
storing a map on the node editor runtime data. This simplifies the code quite
significantly and also removes the need to store any of this data in DNA.
The node tree update code now always clears this cache because before it was
missing many cases, e.g. when creating links that would connect a Combine to a
Separate Bundle node.
