dynamic datatype feature

[cxxamz]

Your idea

In my other project, I use unconnected input and output ports found during the scanning process as the module's input and output ports. This way, ports that are already connected cannot serve as module output ports. My solution is to add a node whose input and output types are the same, which allows for an additional output port. However, currently, port types are fixed, and different types require creating different nodes, which makes the workload very large and difficult to expand. Dynamic port types are the approach I am currently considering.

With dynamic data type feature, we don't have to define a new node for each type, in the following usage scenarios.
