[Bf-cycles] Script node updating from OSL defaults

[Matt Ebb]

If it's possible to figure out programmatically what parameters are in
their default settings and what have been modified, then upon updating a
node type definition you could leave any modified parameters as-is and
update parameters that were previously at the default, to the new default.
Houdini acts like this, and it works pretty well.
