#240 Polygon node

This should fix #240

Is there any way to add a click hook on each node of a polygon to move nodes' offset?

Sure. It's possible to add some hooks for nodes of a polygon and change the shape of it when nodes are moving. This is exactly what I want to implement. But there are two obstacles :( Time/priority and the performance effect this particular hook may cause. I'm talking about hundreds of polygons with thousands of nodes inside each of them.

Yep, it is quite massive. 🤨

Another thing about this approach is whether to make a strong reference between nodes inside a polygon and the polygon itself. If there is no constraint about node deletion, we might be in a place where there is no node inside a polygon. However, if there is such a constraint, how will such a constraint be implemented is still an open question. To name a few. Will polygon reference be a special case for virtual nodes? And how to handle constraints during copy and paste. If only a weak reference exists, then how will a polygon behave on empty nodes? Where should it be placed without any children's node information? I would prefer the latter way but so many questions need to be figured out but this does not have enough priority to be worked on :(

What is the meaning of no node inside a polygon? IMO, node is on the polygon so there is no way that a node is in a polygon.

Nodes that are attached to a polygon. Or a polygon uses these nodes as its information. Nodes may be virtual nodes or a new type.
