Read geometry name node

Since Blender added in 4.3 Set Geometry Name node, might as well add a node that lets you read it? It would add some possibility for cool setups with strings and in general, it should make sense for the future.

For example, you could use it to delete specific geometry by name, please consider adding this :) idea2.png

And it would be very useful for Compare node to have 'Contain' and 'Not Contain' selection under String category. This would unlock a lot of potentials in combination with Set Geometry Name Node.

If we could only access bpy info trough geo nodes, we could unlook a lot of these, but definetly something important, I would add to get / set data-block, and a node to expose it would be amacing.
