Feature Request: Ability to select Models/Loras in Automatic1111

[afecelis]

Describe the feature you'd like to see:

Hi Ben,

Just like when using/enabling controlnet's options, or the upscaler's refresh button to scan for local files inside of webui automatic1111, it would be great to have the possibility to scan for local Model Checkpoints and Loras. The scan could look for .preview files in your folders (in case you have the Civitai Helper extension enabled) and use them as previews as well, just like the thumbnails in your presets options.
Being able to use Checkpoints/Loras/Lycoris/Hypernetworks/Textual Inversions within your plugin would expand the feature set and the creation possibilities even further.

Ps. Detecting local VAEs would also be a great feature!

I would definitely like to make this happen. I need to rely on whatever Automatic1111 reveals through their API, and I haven't looked into this in depth yet.

This is a duplicate of #126 and #25, but I'll leave it open since it's a good summary.
