Transform Socket supported

Details SHA-1: 78c1c1a1705eef442b06ea3f991d54f74fc9566a * Geometry Nodes: support matrix socket in accumulate field node This adds support for transform matrices in the accumulate field node. This is quite useful to evaluate chains of parent matrices (although branching is not easily possible with this approach). The main tricky thing here is that matrices are generally accumulated using multiplication and the order of multiplication matters. For other data types we currently always use addition. I don't have use cases for other ways to accumulate matrices right now, so maybe it's fine not to add additional options here for now. It should be fairly straight forward to version this to support more accumulation modes in the future. Additionally, I hope we get a more general solution for custom accumulations at some point.

A None liner, just added a new screenshot. We don't explain the data types since they are self explaining.

This is one of these issues where writing the issue was more time than directly fixing it.
