Major Breaking Changes

This is a HUGE update, which includes a pretty major overhaul for a lot of the internals, the API and the nodes. This bumps the minimum bpy>=5.2.0 to take advantage of the new node features that have been introduced through the 5.* series so far.

The biggest change that most users will come across is the 10x larger world scale. This brings 1 nm == 1 m inside of Blender whereas previous 1 nm == 0.1 m. It was slightly "more convenient" but lead to a lot of issues with scaling and problems in simulation.

Some nodes / features are currently left out for some final improvements (simulations, DNA) but I'm getting this released for some initial user testing in the lead-up to a MN workshop in London in two weeks.
