Editable Nodes

Previously, Heuristica nodes were designed as being immutable. AI would generate their content, but the generated content could not be edited. The idea behind this design was to ensure the concept maps made sense to anyone looking at them. If you are to update the content of a node without updating the downstream nodes, then it can create misleading or confusing maps. However, the edit functionality has been requested a lot for a long time so it is now enabled for most nodes. You can launch the edit menu by double-clicking a node or from their context menu.

Added DeepSeek-V3 and DeepSeek-R1 (Beta)

Added support for DeepSeek-V3 and DeepSeek-R1. I especially like the R1 model since it shows the chain of thought reasoning of the model, which is sometimes even more informative than the answer it provides. Currently, R1 is in Beta, and I am evaluating the long-term viability of providing this model.
