Instance IDs serve no purpose for rendering when they aren't stable from one frame to the next, and if the index is used in the end anyway, there is no point in storing a vector of IDs and copying it around. This commit exposes the `id` attribute on the instances component, makes it optional-- only generated by default with the distribute points on faces node. Since the string to curves node only added the index as each instance's ID, I removed it. This means that it would be necessary to add the ID data manually if the initial index actually helps (when deleting only certain characters, for example).
