GSoC 2024: Geometry Nodes: File Import Nodes

Week 9

Learned that Boost is a optional dependency so I removed it and implemented the LRU cache without any dependencies, the core is done and working but some smaller things around cache are pending (limiting the cache size). for this there is a dependency on a PR (yet to be raised) that adds approximate size computation to GeometrySet.

Also I require some feedback on how cache related options should be exposed to the user (what is the right place), For which I have started a general feedback thread for my project.

On the side I completed the PLY import node which is ready for review - PR
