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

A private asset in a plugin can be seen and drag dropped into by a private asset in the same plugin. But a private asset cannot be referenced from another plugin.

The default color for curves is now a darker gray instead of White since the selection color is White.
The blue channel for Z and B channels is now brighter because it was too dark on the dark background.

Event Track and ConsoleVariable Track are disabled. Spawn Track is also disabled, which means you can't create spawnables in Valkyrie
Added FIsTrackClassAllowed to MovieScene which is bound in MovieSceneToolsModule to look at the class viewer rules.
Fix logic in MediaTrackEditor and LiveLinkPropertyTrackEditor which was always returning Supported for level sequences.

This fixes a regression introduced by 18938437 which fixed an issue where if you create a binding when there is no hierarchy, the binding stays fixed and can't be used in a hierarchy afterwards.
The fix here is that sequencer doesn't exist (when setting the value through the level blueprint picker), so it should just set the ID directly.

MovieScene was targeted as its headers were at the top of profiling ShooterGame builds.
Tested with -disableunity and -nopch. Current timings take ShooterGameEditor rebuild from 480s to 440s

UDeprecatedDataLayerInstance allows to boot level using deprecated UDataLayers
Worlds using DataLayer can run the DataLayerToAssetCommandlet to transition their existing DataLayers
FActorDataLayer interface is deprecated.

DataLayer Code referencers should now use DataLayerAssets or DataLayerInstance FName to retrieve DataLayerInstances.
DataLayerLabels now only used for display/UI purpose
Relabeling DataLayers is not permitted anymore on new DataLayerInstances (allowed on UDeprecatedDataLayerInstance)
Added Changelist Validation for DataLayers
Added a column to the datalayer outliner showing any data layer errors.

Buffered curves now can only operate on themselves, matching by LongDisplayName. The operations are also restricted to the selected curves (either selected in the tree or selected by way of selected keys). There is a new option to Swap Buffered Curves which stores the current curve to the buffer and restores the buffer to the current curve. The Store/Swap/Apply menus are now visible for all the context menus (keys, hovered curve, all curves). There is also a new toggle to show/hide buffered curves and they are also only visible when the curve is selected.

This fixes a bug where the mode is set to "No Active Mode" when reopening the editor because the Sequencer modes are added before the default mode. This can be removed once a general fix for UE-143791 has been implemented.
