The first in many NodeView improvements. Up until now, nodes have been forcibly
auto-arranged, which has worked as a reasonable stop-gap just so that all the
nodes are visible during testing/development. However this does not make a good
user experience.
We move the auto-arrange code to a manual function that can be used when the
user or program deems it necessary, and also abstract the node positions so that
the view can ultimately determine the exact amount of spacing (useful for
changing DPIs) or orientation, so users can direct the flow whichever way they
want.
Rather than the cumbersome and small "node connectors" (introduced a while ago
when nodes had more than one output), this is a more streamlined system of
connecting nodes (hold Ctrl and drag to connect)
