feat(Blenvy:Blender): finally ! added a clean way of dealing with failed gltf exports

* no more re-raised errors
 * no more remaining "___temp_scenes" or object renames aka no more breaking user's blend files
 * also added boilerplate for displaying more accurate traceback & used it to still display the export errors correctly

         - [ ] the ability to map external TEXT files to data in BLender (git-able, hand editable)
 - [x] make aabbs calculation non configurable, getting rid of the last setting (for now)
 - [ ] add information & screenshots about adding assets to the Blender add-on docs
+- [x] finally deal cleanly with gltf export failures & make sure to always reset the state of the blend file
