Expose Movie timing controls as node input(s) on the Image Texture node

When an Image Texture node uses a Movie source, the Frames , Start Frame , and Offset controls are displayed only as fixed properties inside the node. They cannot be connected to other nodes or exposed through a node group interface.

I propose exposing these timing values as linkable node input(s). The implementation could use either three separate integer sockets or a single three-component vector input containing Frames , Start Frame , and Offset . The important part is that the values can be driven from the node graph while preserving the current editable defaults when no input is connected.

This would make it possible to:

• Control and animate movie timing through Value/Combine nodes, drivers, or node group inputs.
• Synchronize and retime multiple movie textures more easily.
• Build reusable node groups without opening each Image Texture node to change its timing.
