Move groundingdino, transformers, matplotlib, cv2, diffusers, onnxruntime, and scipy imports from module top-level into function bodies. This defers loading until actual use, reducing import time from ~15.6s to <0.1s during ComfyUI startup.

Summary
groundingdino,transformers,matplotlib,cv2,diffusers,onnxruntime, andscipyimports from module top-level into function bodiesDetails
ComfyUI imports all custom nodes at startup to discover
NODE_CLASS_MAPPINGS. The current top-level imports pull in the entire groundingdino → timm → wandb dependency chain (~12s alone) plus transformers (~3.7s) even before any node is used.By moving these imports into the methods that actually need them, the node classes register instantly and libraries only load when a user first queues a workflow that uses them.
