Add 'clear material' to material tool context menu #3058

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

when on desktop, in order to clear the material from the material tool, you must de-equip the tool, grab the orb out of it, and then reequip the tool. this takes time, and is vaguely annoying.

Describe the solution you'd like

a proposed solution from the discord by Enverex is to simply add a 'clear material' option to the radial menu.

my opinion is that this option would perhaps be useful in VR mode aswell.

Describe alternatives you've considered

...continuing to deequip the material tool, to remove the material.

There's actually planned addition for desktop that will make this unnecessary and fix a number of other issues too - temporary secondary cursor. You'll be able to control the hand to actually just remove the material, but also manipulate other things, like knobs and buttons on any tool you have equipped.

It's already on our roadmap here: https://github.com/Neos-Metaverse/NeosPublic/projects/3#card-61035181

We could potentially add this as well, but we want to keep more "physical" workflow to this so I'm not 100 % sure if we'd prioritize it, as it would only solve this particular problem.
