dynamic parent script (space switching)

simple python script that allows the user to add new spaces to an existing object

the enum-attribute allows for switching and retaining the space of the object
the other attributes are there so the animator has easy access to the keys on the timeline

works with a script node and is capable of using namespaces with referencing
attribute names of spaces to switch to are the names of the controls used in selection

upgraded to python and fixed referencing for maya 2019
