- Move ToolTarget implementations, DynamicMeshToVolume to ModelingComponentsEditorOnly module
- move VolumeToDynamicMesh, DynamicMeshProvider/Commiter interfaces to ModelingComponents module
- Add UCreateMeshObjectTypeProperties property set to expose mesh/volume options
- Add FCreateMeshObjectParams::TypeHintClass to allow AVolume type (or other UClass hints) to be passed to creation APIs
- Add UE::ToolTarget::ConfigureCreateMeshObjectParams() util function in ModelingToolTargetUtil, tries to determine output type in a FCreateMeshObjectParams based on input ToolTarget
- Add UEditorModelingObjectsCreationAPI::CreateVolume() implementation
- Add UEditorModelingObjectsCreationAPI::FilterMaterials() that strips out any internal materials and replaces with WorldGridMaterial. This occurs when (eg) subtracting a Volume from a StaticMesh, because the temporary volume mesh gets assigned internal materials, but the Tools don't know this. Use in EditorModelingObjectsCreationAPI when creating new objects. UStaticMeshComponentToolTarget also does this filtering in ::CommitMaterialSetUpdate().
- Add ::ComponentTypeSupportsCollision() function to ComponentCollisionUtil, use to avoid checks/ensures for Volume targets
- Add support for automatic mesh simplification in DynamicMeshToVolume. Add CVar to VolumeDynamicMeshToolTarget.h to control max triangle count (default 500). Apply auto-simplify when creating or updating an AVolume. This prevents the Editor from blocking for long periods on meshes that are too high-res for volumes (even 500 is quite high).
- DynamicMeshToVolume now emits polygroup-faces that contain holes (ie multiple boundary loops) as a set of triangles, rather than emitting separate overlapping faces for each boundary loop

[CL 16561742 by Ryan Schmidt in ue5-main branch]
- add new UModelingObjectsCreationAPI and associated data structures, provides abstract API for creating mesh and texture objects from Tools that is not specifically tied to StaticMesh Actors/Assets
- new helper functions in UE::Modeling:: namespace to simplify usage of an implementation of this API registered in a ContextObjectStore
- add new UEditorModelingObjectsCreationAPI implementation of above, supports hooks for higher level to provide custom paths
- add ModelingModeAssetUtils.h, provides several functions in UE::Modeling:: namespace to be used to implement those hooks (various existing path-determination code is moved here)
- ModelingToolsEditorMode now registers an instance of UEditorModelingObjectsCreationAPI in ContextObjectStore and connects up callbacks to these path functions
- AssetGenerationUtil functions and ModelingModeAssetAPI deleted
- All Tools that previously used IToolsContextAssetAPI updated to use this new system
