Purpose

JIRA: https://jira.autodesk.com/browse/DYN-1211

This addresses an issue where for any multi-output node, the preview bubble wasn't getting cleared after disconnecting the node from an upstream node. The preview values would remain.

The reason for this is that whenever a node is disconnected, its AST's are recomputed to look something like:

var_<node_guid> = __CreateFunctionObject(...);

where the node, identified by its output identifier, var_<guid>, now becomes a function object (or partial function). However for multi-output nodes, the variable identifier was erroneously being set to something else, __partial_<guid>. Since the original node identifier was not being replaced with a function object, it retained its original cached value and when it was queried in the preview bubble, it returned the original value as expected. The fix is to replace the new identifier with the original one so that it can be reset to a function object when the node is disconnected.
