[Feature Request] Automesh for Selected Nodes (Outside of Edit Mode)

[r888800009]

Validations

• I have checked for similar feature requests and could not find any.
• I have made sure this is not an already-existing feature.

Description

Currently, automesh functionality is available but requires users to manually enter the "Edit Mesh" mode to apply it. To streamline the workflow, we need to enable automatic mesh generation for selected nodes directly, without the need to enter the edit mode.

Suggested solution

Implement a feature that allows users to automatically apply mesh generation to selected nodes without having to manually enter the "Edit Mesh" mode. This enhancement will allow automesh to be executed on the fly, making the process more efficient. Ensure that this function respects the existing meshes by only applying the automesh to nodes that haven’t been manually modified, or provide a prompt to confirm changes if existing meshes are present.

Before this is to be implemented, the automeshing algorithm should be improved to reduce overdraw. Right now the triangulation algorithm will create a lot of empty triangles with no texture inside of them. This needs to be fixed using Delaunay Refinement + a possible second pass doing texture lookups to remove "dead" vertices at a set distance from textured areas.
