Extend the Ignore Errors options for property nodes

[Mark_Yedinak]

Currently property nodes allow you to ignore errors that occur inside the property node however it would be useful if we could specify for the property node to ignore input errors as well. In a block diagram the "Error In"  input of a property node is often used to force data flow however if you are not concerned with any input errors you are forced to clear any errors first. If I am updating the property of a control such as enabling or disabling it, changing some attribute such as color or label text, or something similar the input error is often meaningless. It would be nice if we could simply ignore any errors.

Here is an example of what the change would look like. Furthermore, the way I would envision this to work would be if you select to ignore incoming errors the error input would change from black to red. This would be similar to how the current ignore errors on the inside works. I would also envision this option only affecting the input errors. Internally generated errors would be control by the state of the "Ignore Errors inside Node". If the "Ignore Input Errors" (new feature) is enabled and an error is input then that error would be passed through. If an error occurs on the inside then just like today in most VIs the internal error would overwrite the input error.
