[Feature Request]: Expose options parameter to `setStyle` & `setComponents`

Question

Hello again !

Our team has recently been trying to update GrapesJS' canvas programmatically without accidentally triggering an update event. If our understanding is correct, this would mean allowing a call to setStyle or setComponents not to trigger an update event, regardless of the current stepsBeforeSave & changesCount values.

After some research, the avoidStore option seems like a good fit to achieve what we're trying to do, but the problem is that we didn't find any way to use this parameter with the current public API.

A potential solution we found would imply exposing the options parameter to the setStyle & setComponents methods, to be able to do the following:

const options = {avoidStore: true};
this.editor.setStyle([/*...*/], options);
this.editor.setComponents([/*...*/], options);

Do you consider this a valid use case, or is there some other way to achieve this that we could not find ?

As always, I'd be happy to open a PR if so !

Cheers :)

Yeah, it actually might make sense having options in these methods, so a PR would be welcome.
