Added Three Different Cases for Adding a New Instance (#1859)

* implemented paste with offset

* right click and then default will paste the new instance at the location of the cursor

* modified the logics for creating new instance

* refined the logic

* fixed the logic for right click

* refined logics for adding new instance at a specific location

* Remove print statements

* Comment code

* Ensure that we choose a non nan reference node

* Move OOB nodes to closest in-bounds position
