Geometry Nodes: Clarify modifier node group errors

This commit adds modifier error messages to some of the cases
where the node group is configured improperly. It also clears the
geometry set when there is an error with the node group. This is
consistent to what we do in nodes themselves, and feels more
intuitive than passing the input geometry through the node group
silently.

Fixes T87142
