Applies optional filtering to the BP context menu and related UIs.
Primarily this is implemented at the BlueprintActionDatabase/Registrar level as permissions are mostly static. One additional filter has been added to BlueprintActionFilter to handle filtering out items from assets that cannot be referenced from *this* blueprint.
Added type filtering to the variable type tree to prevent creating disallowed variable types. This piggybacks on the already-existing FImportedPinTypeSelectorFilter.
Also added some auditing console commands: bp.AuditThreadSafeFunctions and bp.AuditFunctionCallsForBlueprint
Corrected FBlueprintEditorUtils::HasFunctionBlueprintThreadSafeMetaData to not track FUNC_BlueprintEvent flags for native functions.

[CL 20818683 by phillip kavan in ue5-main branch]
This change consists of multiple changes:
Core:
- Deprecation of ANY_PACKAGE macro. Added ANY_PACKAGE_DEPRECATED macro which can still be used for backwards compatibility purposes (only used in CoreUObject)
- Deprecation of StaticFindObjectFast* functions that take bAnyPackage parameter
- Added UStruct::GetStructPathName function that returns FTopLevelAssetPath representing the path name (package + object FName, super quick compared to UObject::GetPathName) + wrapper UClass::GetClassPathName to make it look better when used with UClasses
- Added (Static)FindFirstObject* functions that find a first object given its Name (no Outer). These functions are used in places I consider valid to do global UObject (UClass) lookups like parsing command line parameters / checking for unique object names
- Added static UClass::TryFindType function which serves a similar purpose as FindFirstObject however it's going to throw a warning (with a callstack / maybe ensure in the future?) if short class name is provided. This function is used in places that used to use short class names but now should have been converted to use path names to catch any potential regressions and or edge cases I missed.
- Added static UClass::TryConvertShortNameToPathName utility function
- Added static UClass::TryFixShortClassNameExportPath utility function
- Object text export paths will now also include class path (Texture2D'/Game/Textures/Grass.Grass' -> /Script/Engine.Texture2D'/Game/Textures/Grass.Grass')
- All places that manually generated object export paths for objects will now use FObjectPropertyBase::GetExportPath
- Added a new startup test that checks for short type names in UClass/FProperty MetaData values
AssetRegistry:
- Deprecated any member variables (FAssetData / FARFilter) or functions that use FNames to represent class names and replaced them with FTopLevelAssetPath
- Added new member variables and new function overloads that use FTopLevelAssetPath to represent class names
- This also applies to a few other modules' APIs to match AssetRegistry changes
Everything else:
- Updated code that used ANY_PACKAGE (depending on the use case) to use FindObject(nullptr, PathToObject), UClass::TryFindType (used when path name is expected, warns if it's a short name) or FindFirstObject (usually for finding types based on user input but there's been a few legitimate use cases not related to user input)
- Updated code that used AssetRegistry API to use FTopLevelAssetPaths and USomeClass::StaticClass()->GetClassPathName() instead of GetFName()
- Updated meta data and hardcoded FindObject(ANY_PACKAGE, "EEnumNameOrClassName") calls to use path names

Adds 'template' anim BP concept. These anim BPs have no TargetSkeleton and as such cannot have direct references to animations placed inside of their anim graphs
Adds function call support from anim nodes. All anim graph nodes can now call functions when initialized, updated, evaluated or when they first become relevant.
Relevancy is established using a new FAnimSubsystemInstance_NodeRelevancy which tracks nodes in a local map, per UAnimInstance, if nodes require it.
Functions are displayed on the node if bound, and in the details panel.
Added a new override point to FAnimSubsystemInstance to allow for WT init.
Moved FMemberReference customization into a public header so it can be used on anim node functions.
Wrapped functions up into FAnimNodeFunctionRef structure so they can be re-used more effectively. Converted CallFunction node to use them.
Added a couple of simple BP function libraries to demonstrate the use of the new FAnimNodeContext (this is intended to be a generic way of exposing FAnimNode_Base types to script without the node types themselves having to be known to script directly).
Added the ability to set exposed properties as 'always dynamic' so they appear in mutable data rather than being merged into constants. This allows for the anim node data API to be changed to be less strict (and more script friendly). Now values can be set in mutable data (via GET_MUTABLE_ANIM_NODE_DATA_PTR) and attempted sets to constant data can be ignored and reported to client code.
A few minor crash fixes with edge cases (inc when trying to open an asset editor fails because of a missing skeleton/cancellation).
Also fixes an issue where literal linked anim graph/control rig/custom poroperty node inputs didnt get copied

#jira UE-116472 - Asset players bound via property access incorrectly report that they use asset 'None'
#rb Jurre.deBaare
[CL 16466900 by Thomas Sarkanen in ue5-main branch]
Unified the approach to gathering assets and spawning nodes from them. Previously each had its own slightly unique code doing similar things.
Note that with this change it is now possible to directly spawn 'evaluator' style nodes from the context menu instead of relying on a context menu conversion step.
Also tweaked icons, tooltips and titles for consistency
#rb Jurre.deBaare
[CL 16434364 by Thomas Sarkanen in ue5-main branch]
Per-node constant data is now held on a generated struct as part of sparse class data.
Per-node mutable data (i.e. pin links/property access mappings) is now held on a generated 'mutable data' struct that is compiled as part of the generated class.
The anim BP compiler is now extended more conventionally using UAnimBlueprintExtension, derived from UBlueprintExtension. This directly replaces the older 'compiler handler' pattern that was added in an emergency fashion for 4.26. Anim graph nodes now request their required extensions and these are held on the UAnimBlueprint in the UBlueprint::Extensions array. The Extensions array is potentially refreshed with any node addition or removal. The Extensions array is force-refreshed each time an anim BP is compiled for the first time to deal with newly added or removed requirements.
Const-corrected a bunch of UAnimInstance/FAnimInstanceProxy APIs that rely on (now truly) const data.
Added a split state/constant version of FInputScaleBiasClamp to allow some of its data to be split into constants.
Tweaked alignment/ordering of FPoseLinkBase to save a few bytes per pose link.
Deprecated FAnimNode_Base::OverrideAsset in favor of a more UAnimGraphNode_Base-based approach. Individual nodes can still have runtime overrides via specific accessors. The new approach will also give us the oppurtunity to override multiple assets per node if required in the future.
Moved property access into Engine module & removed event support from it - this was never used.
Reworked property access compilation API a little - construction/lifetime was a bit confusing previously.
Optimized path used to create UK2Node_StructMemberSet nodes in per-node custom events. When using mutable data, the structure used is large and very sparsely connected (i.e. only a few properties are written) so we only create pins that are actually going to be used, rather than creating all of them and conly connecting a few.
Patched the following nodes to use the new data approach:
- Asset players (sequences, blendspaces, aim offsets)
- Blend lists
- Ref poses
- Roots

[CL 16071104 by Thomas Sarkanen in ue5-main branch]
Refactored tick record sync into utility structure - FAnimSync. This improves the odd API around tick records, better encapsulating functionality and leaving less for the caller to get wrong. This will also eventually allow this to be refactored out into a scriptable pipeline stage.
Added sync node and scoped sync message for new 'graph based sync'. Nodes that subscribe to graph-based-sync determine their sync group based on the scope that they are in.
Removed 4.26-style sync scopes - pushed all syncing up to the main anim instance. Linked anim instances no longer sync their own tick records.
To make graph based sync more useful, surfaced graph attributes and their visualizations as labels on pins and parallel wires to visualize flow.
This involves statically determining the attribute flow of the graph at compile time. Added a new compiler handler to deal with this new debug data.
Updated a lot of nodes to specify their attributes so graph flow can be correctly visualized.
Added tracing of attributes and sync records and visualization of traced records when debugging the anim graph.

Moved UObject-based compiler subsystems to 'handlers' and removed UObject dependency.
Moved from set of virtual functions on subsystems/handlers to a restricted set of contexts passed to specific multicast delegates that handlers subscribe to.
Removed anim class subsystems.
Moved property access code to engine module (editor code is still in a plugin).
Fixed nativized builds where anim BPs have nativized/non-nativized classes in the hierarchy

PR #4358: Incredibuild use ShowAgent by default (Contributed by projectgheist)
Change 3822594 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Improvements to log file handling.
- Always create log files in the final location, rather than writing to a temp directory and copying in later.
- Now supports -Verbose and -VeryVerbose for increasing log verbosity, rather than -Verbose=XXX.
- Keep a backlog of log output before the log system is initialized, and flush it to the log file once it is.
- Allow buildmachines to specify the uebp_FinalLogFolder environment variable, which is used to form paths for display. When build machines copy log files elsewhere after UAT finishes (eg. a network share), this allows error messages to display the right location.
Change 3823695 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Fix issue where precompiled binaries would not be shown as available for a change until scrolling the last submitted code change into the buffer (other symptoms, like de-focussing the main window would cause it to go back to an unavailable state, since the changes buffer was shrunk).
Now always queries changes up to the last change for which zipped binaries are available.
Change 3823845 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Exclude C# projects for unsupported platforms when generating project files.
Change 3824180 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Add an option to show changes by build machines, and move the "only show reviewed" option in there too (Options > Show Changes).

GitHub #4399 : Added a CONSTEXPR qualifiers to FVariant::GetType()
#jira UE-53813
Change 3829189 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Now always writes a minimal log file. By default, just contains the regular console output and any reasons why actions are outdated and needed to be executed. UAT directs child UBT instances to output logs into its own log folder, so that build machines can save them off.
Change 3830444 by Steve.Robb
BuildVersion and ModuleManifest moved to Core, and parsing of these files reimplemented to avoid a JSON library.
This should be revisited when Core has its own JSON library.
Change 3830718 by Ben.Marsh
Fix incorrect group name being returned by FStatNameAndInfo::GetGroupName() for stat groups.
The editor populates the viewport stats list by calling this for every registered stat and stat group (via FLevelViewportCommands::HandleNewStatGroup). The menu entry attempts to show the stat name with STAT_XXX stripped from the start as the menu item label, with the free-form text description as a tooltip.
For stat groups, the it would previously just return the stat group name as "Groups" (due to the raw naming convention of "//Groups//STATGROUP_Foo//..."). Since this didn't match the expected naming convention in FLevelViewportCommands::HandleNewStat (ie. STAT_XXX or STATGROUP_XXX), it would fail to add it.
When the first actual stat belonging to that group is added, it would add a menu entry for the group based on that, but the stat description no longer makes sense as a tooltip for the group. As a result, all the editor tooltips were junk.

Change 3832680 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Fix failing to detect workspace if synced to a different stream. Seems to be a regression caused by recent P4D upgrade.
Change 3832695 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Invert the options in the 'Show Changes' submenu for simplicity.
Change 3833528 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Script to rewrite source files with public include paths relative to the 'Public' folder. Usage is: RebasePublicIncludePaths -UpdateDir=<Dir> [-Project=<Dir>] [-Write].
Change 3833543 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Allow targets to opt-out of having public include paths added for every dependent module. This reduces the command line length when building a target, which has recently become a problem with larger games (due to Microsoft's compiler embedding the command line into each object file, with a maximum length of 64kb). All engine modules are compiled with this enabled; games may opt into it by setting bLegacyPublicIncludePaths = false; from their .target.cs, as may individual modules.

Change 3837037 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Fix engine modules having inconsistent definitions depending on whether modules are only referenced for their include paths vs being linked into a binary (due to different _API macro).
Change 3837040 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove code that initializes members in ModuleRules and TargetRules objects before the constructor is run. This is no longer necessary, now that the backwards-compatible default constructors have been removed.
Change 3837247 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove UELinkerFixups module, now that plugins and precompiled modules do not require hacks to force initialization (since they're linked in as object files).
Encryption and signing keys are now set via macros expanded from the IMPLEMENT_PRIMARY_GAME_MODULE macro, via project-specific macros added in the TargetRules constructor.
Change 3837262 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Set whether a module is an engine module or not via a default value for the rules assembly. All non-program engine and enterprise modules are created with this flag set to true; program targets and modules are now created from a different assembly that sets it to false. This removes hacks from UEBuildModule needed to adjust behavior for different module types based on the directory containing the module.
Also add a bUseBackwardsCompatibleDefaults flag to the TargetRules class, also initialized to a default value from a setting passed to the RulesAssembly constructor. This controls whether modules created for the target should be configured to allow breaking changes to default settings, and is set to false for all engine targets, and true for all project targets.
Change 3837343 by Ben.Marsh

UBT: Simplify configuring bPrecompile and bUsePrecompile settings for modules. Each rules assembly can now be configured as installed, which defaults the module rules it creates to use precompiled data.

UnrealPak: Log the size of all encrypted data
Change 3844258 by Ben.Marsh
Fix plugin compile failure when created via new plugin wizard. Passing -plugin on the command line is unnecessary, and is now reserved for packaging external plugins for the marketplace.
Also extend the length of time that the error toast stays visible, and don't delete the plugin on failure.

Linux: fix crash due to lambda lifetime issues (UE-54040).
- The lambda goes out of scope in FBufferVisualizationMenuCommands::CreateVisualizationCommands, crashing the editor if compiled with a recent clang (5.0+).

Revert CL 3822742 to always call Process.WaitForExit(). The Android target platform module in the editor spawns ADB.EXE, which inherits the editor's stdout/stderr handles and forks itself. Process.WaitForExit() waits for EOF on those pipes, which never occurs because the forked process never terminates.
Proper fix is probably to have the engine explicitly duplicate stdout/stderr handles for new pipes to output process, but too risky before copying up to Main.

UBT: Use DirectoryReference objects for all include paths.
Change 3816954 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove bIncludeDependentLibrariesInLibrary option. This is not widely supported by platform toolchains, and is not used anywhere.
Change 3816986 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove UEBuildBinaryConfig; UEBuildBinary objects are now just created directly.
Change 3816991 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Deprecate PlatformSpecificDynamicallyLoadedModules. We no longer have any special behavior for these modules.
Change 3823090 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Improve logging for child UAT instances.
- Calling RunUAT now requires an identifier for prefixing into the parent log, which is also used to determine the name of the log folder.
- Stdout is no longer written to its own output file, since it's written to the parent stdout, the parent log file, and the child log file anyway.
- Log folders for child UAT instances are left intact, rather than being copied to the parent folder. The derived names for the copied names were confusing and hard to read.
- Output from UAT is no longer returned as a string. It should not be parsed anyway (but may be huge!). ProcessResult now supports running without capturing output.
Change 3826082 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Add a check to make sure that all modules that are precompiled are correctly marked to enable it, even if they are part of the build target.
Change 3827025 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Move the compile output directory into a property on the module, and explicitly pass it to the toolchain when compiling.

Made HTTP interface const correct
Change 3833533 by Ben.Marsh
Rewrite engine source files to base include paths relative to the "Public" directory. This allows reducing the number of public include paths that have to be added for engine modules.
Change 3835826 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Precompiled targets now generate a separate manifest for each precompiled module, rather than adding object files to a library. This fixes issues where object files from static libraries would not be linked into a target if a symbol in them was not referenced.
Change 3835969 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Fix cases where text is being written directly to the console rather than via logging functions.
Change 3837777 by Steve.Robb
Format string type checking added to FOutputDevice::Logf.
Fixes for those.
