Add three new nodes for operations and inputs specific to
node group operators.
- **Selection** Whether elements are selected in the viewport
- **Set Selection** Sets the edit/sculpt selection, on the point,
face, or curve domains
- **3D Cursor** Gives the location and rotation of the 3D cursor,
in the local space of the modified object.
- **Face Set** The face set value from mesh sculpt mode,
and whether the attribute exists.
- **Set Face Set** Set sculpt face set values.
In the add menu and search, the nodes are only visible in the
"Tool" context of the geometry node editor. They also give
errors when executed by a modifier.

Add support in the UI for the edit mode of curves, mesh, and point
cloud objects. It's possible to control for which mode sand object
types the asset is available with a dropdown in the node header.
To make this per-mode filtering possible, the static asset tree
cache is now unique per context mode.

Show node group inputs in the redo panel, including the
"use attribute" toggle. There are a few limitations that will
be solved separately:
- The redo panel is _always_ drawn, there is no way to show it conditionally yet
- There is no way to add the operator name to the redo panel title yet
- Attribute search is still missing for attribute inputs

Remove the "_for_read" suffix from methods to get geometry and geometry
components. That should be considered the default, so the suffix just
adds unnecessary text. This is consistent with the attribute API and
various implicit sharing data access methods.
Use "from_mesh" instead of "create_with_mesh". This is consistent with
the recently used naming for the `IndexMask` API.

In order to more reliably pass the asset to the operator, use a string
property with the full asset path instead of using a context pointer.
This is required to support the quick favorites menu, shortcuts, and
to draw operator inputs in the redo panel. In all of those situations
the original context isn't available. This also feels safer, since we
rely less on storing pointers to data with a less-defined lifetime.

The asset import method option was added after the additions that use
assets in the node editor, so the node editor features still always used
append and reuse, no matter the import method.
This commit improves the asset import function to use the asset's
import method, with "Append & Reuse" as a default.

This isn't really helpful at this point, and is ugly/distracting when
starting Blender. It's not that bad if more menus show up with a
bit of a delay anyway.
This PR adds a new operator to run a node group on object geometry.
Only curves sculpt mode is supported for now, to simplify the design.
A new geometry node editor context to edit operator groups is also
added. This allows changing any node group, rather than only node
groups that are part of the active modifier context.
3D viewport menus are added with any geometry node group
asset in a catalog that contains the `Operator` tag. Currently Blender
must be restarted to refresh the list of available operators.
This is only the first phase of the node group operator feature.
Many more features will be added in next steps.
