This PR is the last PR aimed at fixing #366, specifically focusing on NeuropixelsV2e devices in this branch. Similarly to the other PRs (#549, #522), all probe configuration properties have been consolidated into a single class, and there is additionally a new property in the ProbeConfiguration class that holds a filename for where the ProbeInterface file will be saved/loaded.
The ProbeInterface file is only touched in one of two scenarios: 1) The Bonsai file is saved (the ProbeInterface file is also saved), and 2) The Bonsai file is loaded (the ProbeInterface file is also loaded). At all other times, any operation on changing the electrode configuration is operating on the object in memory; this includes importing/exporting files via the GUI File menu items, or using the GUI to change the electrode configuration.
Fixes #546
