Function for node groups. When user want to put geometry
to group socket, information about type of components to
support can be added to tooltip by author. This not too
automatic, error-prone and the data may no longer be
up-to-date when the nodes capabilities are expanded.

This PR added automatic mechanism to deduce list of supported
types of geometry component for socket of node group.

Right now list of supported geometry component is not
propagated as field interfacing in a node tree. If a Curve
only socket connected to group input node via some general
node without limitation, this group socket will be marked
as support everything. This too complex task and not solved
in this PR.

Supported components is any component, what can be taken by
at least one socket. So, even if only one socket from all
connected can take Point Cloud, it going be displayed as
supported in node group interface tooltip.

I think this generally makes sense, but it's probably not complete without propagating the supported types forwards and backwards, and without considering field input nodes. I'm not sure how much it makes sense to add this if it's not "complete," it might be misleading.

I don't think it's okay to call this on a const node. Is this actually necessary? The declarations would ideally be up to date already at this point.
