feat(tools:gltf_auto_export): big ux improvements (#28)

* export_main_output_name => export_output_folder & the blueprints folder is now relative
to this one
* exported main scene gltf file name is now created based on the Blender scene name, not settable
* blueprints folder defaults to "library"
* the exporter now defaults to enabled blueprints, & enabled change detection in library
* added handling of export parameter changes
 * ie when the gltf parameters (gltf vs glb, compression etc), are changed
the next time you save , all the models are re-exported

* feat(tools:gltf_auto_export): major overhaul & optimisation of library export
 * added change detection handling so only the actually changed collections get exported on save
 * works with actual changes (ie clicks/ selections don't count)
 * this means "progressive" export of only the changed parts, WAY faster
 * removed "export_on_library_changes" setting, which was semi redundant with the library toggle itself
 * also scans for already existing exports on disk (for "first runs" in a Blender session)
 * many smaller cleanups

 * added logic to save/load export parameters in operator
 * parameters are thus now persisted even if the addon is removed & added back
 * based on standard gltf exporter
 * operator presets are now fixed as well & can be used normally
 * added injection of saved parameters in case there is a save attempts after installing the add_on
  and there where previously saved settings

* feat(tools:gltf_auto_export): added support for multiple main & lib scenes
 * with scene picking & filtering
 * adding a scene to the list now only works once you selected a scene from the picker

* docs(tools/gltf_auto_export): updated docs
