rB85df7036f76b: Fix T94827: Group Input/Output cannot connect to custom sockets

Summary

Caused by rBa5c59fb90ef9.

Since Group Input and Output sockets happen to be of type SOCK_CUSTOM
[and since rBa5c59fb90ef9 custom py defined sockets are too :)] a check
introduced in rB513066e8ad6f that prevents connections for SOCK_CUSTOM
triggered.

Now refine the check, so it specifically looks for NODE_GROUP_INPUT /
NODE_GROUP_OUTPUT, too (this keeps the intention intact to not connect
group inputs to group outputs and vice versa, but allows custom py
defined sockets to connect again).

This fixes it for me. Just built the patch and it's working again. Thank you for the fix, and the
speed!

Can we have a static bool is_group_extension_socket(const bNode *node, const bNodeSocket *socket) utility method? That would make it more obvious what is being tested here imo.
