UMeshElementsVisualizer::SetMeshAccessFunction() now takes a TFunction with a TFunctionRef argument, instead of with a FDynamicMesh3* argument. This allows the UMeshElementsVisualizer to access the target mesh via the ProcessMesh()-style call on a UPreviewMesh, UDynamicMesh, etc, rather than receiving direct pointer access. See UWeldMeshEdgesTool::Setup() for example usage.
Add UMeshOpPreviewWithBackgroundCompute::ProcessCurrentMesh(), which forwards to the embedded UPreviewMesh::ProcessMesh() (which can be used with the above)
Add UE::ToolTarget::GetMeshDescriptionCopy() to ModelingToolTargetUtil, similar to existing DynamicMesh variant that will auto-compute tangents if necessary.

- Add UE::ToolTarget::CommitMaterialSetUpdate() and ::CommitDynamicMeshUpdate(). ::GetDynamicMeshCopy() can now return tangents if requested.
- Add IMeshDescriptionProvider::CalculateAutoGeneratedAttributes(). Default implementation does nothing, UStaticMeshComponentToolTarget implementation initializes auto-generated MeshDescription attributes. Used in ::GetDynamicMeshCopy() to get tangents (but requires a MeshDescription copy).
- Clean up handling of Tangents in Simple/OctreeDynamicMeshComponent. Add local MakeTangentsFunc() to generate the Tangents lambda, handle different cases and no-tangents fallbacks consistently.
- UDynamicMesh: add optional info arguments to EditMesh() and ChangeInfo struct. Add support for deferring change events from Edit funcs.
- Remove UBaseDynamicMeshComponent::InitializeMesh(), ::Bake() APIs, and add ::SetMesh(). Implement in Simple/Octree implementations, update all Tools that used those APIs.
- Add USimpleDynamicMeshComponent::ProcessMesh(), EditMesh(). These are now the preferred ways to read/write mesh.
- Update USimpleDynamicMeshComponent tangents handling. Externally-computed tangents are now taken directly from the FDynamicMesh3 attribute set. Autogenerated tangents are still computed and stored in an internal FMeshTangentsf, but this is no longer exposed for external updates.
- Remove UPreviewMesh pass-through functions for Tangents access, InitializeMesh() and Bake(). Add ProcessMesh()
- Update all affected Tools. In most cases these Tools have also been converted to use ModelingToolTargetUtil functions, instead of direct ToolTarget interface casting.

[CL 16650666 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

Change color of UV seams to match the color used in the mesh inspector.
Also update the option name to "Show UV Seams" from "Show Constraints"

The default boundary constraints for the Simplify tool were set too strictly which prevented our primitive sphere from being simplified. This change relaxes those constraints.
