rotBlock was using the mechanism to overwrite values but actually it is
only for communication to the puppet. So now there is
NodeInstanceAuxiliary as a generic way. NodeInstance was renamed
NodeInstancePropertyOverwrite to make it clear that it is for
overwriting properties.

Auxiliary data so far used naming conventions to declare the kind of the
data. Now an enumeration is used. The auxiliaryData(...) is returning an
optional too so that it is known if a value exists. There is now
auxiliaryDataWithDefault(...) which is returning an invalid
QVariant instead.
The instance cache is now disabled because there is not notification for
information changes. So if we get the real data from the node instances
there will be no information changes because nothing changed. So the
form editor is a strange state of being reset but not all data
arrived. Before this patch there were still changes happen because of
some side effects that auxiliary properties were sent which were never
intended to be sent. If we re-enable the cache we need to send
information changes or every view must expect that the information is
already there.

Because the project storage is integer id based the string based API
isn't fitting well for the new approach. PropertyMetaInfo can be easier
mapped to the project storage.

And PropertyName is a typedef for QByteArray. Because we don't use the
features of QString and the source would be cluttered with QLatin1Strings
we changed the property name to QByteArray.
