More intuitive Transfer Attribute socket names

As it stands, the Transfer Attribute node is counterintuitive.

The node takes a "source" geometry and samples an attribute at the "destination" geometry's point positions.

But it looks as though it works the opposite way, accepting the destination ("target") geometry and the point positions of the source!

To mitigate this, I propose a socket rename:

  • Target should be renamed "Source"
  • Source Position should be renamed "Target Position" or "Sampling Position" (fwiw, I prefer the latter).

This would likely make Transfer Attribute easier to figure out.
