feat: Somewhat working addon.

Solved a lot of problems related to bundled Python environment flushing
for reloading. However, we have a really solid framework for computing
node trees, and we can now both construct Tidy3D objects and noodle
them into the "Debug Printer". Next step is rote implementation of
relevant nodes, then live-visualization of the simulation setup.

See #2 for progress tracking.
