V3 Improvements + DynamicCombo + Autogrow exposed in public API (#11345)

* Support Combo outputs in a more sane way

* Remove test validate_inputs function on test node

* Make curr_prefix be a list of strings instead of string for easier parsing as keys get added to dynamic types

* Start to account for id prefixes from frontend, need to fix bug with nested dynamics

* Ensure inputs/outputs/hidden are lists in schema finalize function, remove no longer needed 'is not None' checks

* Add raw_link and extra_dict to all relevant Inputs

* Make nested DynamicCombos work properly with prefixed keys on latest frontend; breaks old Autogrow, but is pretty much ready for upcoming Autogrow keys

* Replace ... usage with a MISSING sentinel for clarity in nodes_logic.py

* Added CustomCombo node in backend to reflect frontend node

* Prepare Autogrow's expand_schema_for_dynamic to work with upcoming frontend changes

* Prepare for look up table for dynamic input stuff

* More progress towards dynamic input lookup function stuff

* Finished converting _expand_schema_for_dynamic to be done via lookup instead of OOP to guarantee working with process isolation, did refactoring to remove old implementation + cleaning INPUT_TYPES definition including v3 hidden definition

* Change order of functions

* Removed some unneeded functions after dynamic refactor

* Make MatchType's output default displayname "MATCHTYPE"

* Fix DynamicSlot get_all

* Removed redundant code - dynamic stuff no longer happens in OOP way

* Natively support AnyType (*) without __ne__ hacks

* Remove stray code that made it in

* Remove expand_schema_for_dynamic left over on DynamicInput class

* get_dynamic() on DynamicInput/Output was not doing anything anymore, so removed it

* Make validate_inputs validate combo input correctly

* Temporarily comment out conversion to 'new' (9 month old) COMBO format in get_input_info

* Remove refrences to resources feature scrapped from V3

* Expose DynamicCombo in public API

* satisfy ruff after some code got commented out

* Make missing input error prettier for dynamic types

* Created a Switch2 node as a side-by-side test, will likely go with Switch2 as the initial switch node

* Figured out Switch situation

* Pass in v3_data in IsChangedCache.get function's fingerprint_inputs, add a from_v3_data helper method to HiddenHolder

* Switch order of Switch and Soft Switch nodes in file

* Temp test node for MatchType

* Fix missing v3_data for v1 nodes in validation

* For now, remove chacking duplicate id's for dynamic types

* Add Resize Image/Mask node that thanks to MatchType+DynamicCombo is 16-nodes-in-1

* Made DynamicCombo references in DCTestNode use public interface

* Add an AnyTypeTestNode

* Make lazy status for specific inputs on DynamicInputs work by having the values of the dictionary for check_lazy_status be a tuple, where the second element is the key of the input that can be returned

* Comment out test logic nodes

* Make primitive float's step make more sense

* Add (and leave commented out) some potential logic nodes

* Change default crop option to "center" on Resize Image/Mask node

* Changed copy.copy(d) to d.copy()

* Autogrow is available in stable  frontend, so exposing it in public API

* Use outputs id as display_name if no display_name present, remove v3 outputs id restriction that made them have to have unique IDs from the inputs

* Enable Custom Combo node as stable frontend now supports it

* Make id properly act like display_name on outputs

* Add Batch Images/Masks/Latents node

* Comment out Batch Images/Masks/Latents node for now, as Autogrow has a bug with MatchType where top connection is disconnected upon refresh

* Removed code for a couple test nodes in nodes_logic.py

* Add Batch Images, Batch Masks, and Batch Latents nodes with Autogrow, deprecate old Batch Images + LatentBatch nodes
