Value node should include integer and not be a separate node

Why would this field be separate? The value node should have a drop down to change from float to integer. This would also pave the way for future value types like string values, boolean values etc.

I don't fully agree with the dropdown proposition, but I agree that having "value" and "integer" in geometry node and only value in shader is disappointing.

There should be "float" and "integer" in both shading and geometry node and every node tree.

Even if the variable behind the integer node is still a float in c++ blender code, it is easier to have an UI slider that goes 1 by 1.

Also, all noise have a correct name, except the "noise texture" that should be named perlin noise.
