Behavior

• drawMiddle() renders an ImGui button in the node body. Clicking it while the graph is running sets doTrigger = true.
• work() outputs the trigger state on the flow pin and immediately resets it.
• onLink() auto-names the button after the connected target pin name (or target node name if the pin is named 'flow').
• onUnlink() resets the button label to "Push".
