- Inline edit support for UPROPERTY of type float, int32, uint32, uint8, enum, bool.
- Editable UPROPERTYs with "OverridingInputProperty" metadata are created as inline widgets next to their corresponding inputs.
- Rest of the editable UPROPERTYs may specify "ShowAsInputPin" metadata to become inline edit pins, with 2 choices: "Primary" - show in primary view, "Advanced" - show in in advanced view.
- Update a bunch of material expressions to reflect the changes, rest of the expressions still need to be worked through.

FStaticParameterSet::MaterialLayers can't be deprecated, since a property with the same name is included via FStaticParameterSetRuntimeData
So instead, FMaterialLayersFunctionsRuntimeData is updated with SerializeFromMismatchedTag, to allow serializing a full FMaterialLayersFunction.
When this happens, the EditorOnly portion is stored in a separate heap allocation, and then transferred to FStaticParameterSet::EditorOnly::MaterialLayers

Add 'Optional' EditorOnly data for UMaterialInterface and UMaterialFunctionInterface
These are separate UObject hierarchies that store editor-only UPROPERTIES, but can be included with cooked content, which allows full editor support.
In principle, all editor-only properties could be moved over. So far, this has been limited to UMaterialExpressions, and data related to material parameters.
FStaticParameterSet, FMaterialLayersParameters, and FMaterialCachedExpressionData have all been split into separate editor-only/non-editor-only classes,
which allows the editor-only portion to be stored on the optional editor-only UObject.

# Results
- In my small tests this resulted in compiling 8.9x less shaders (1558 vs. 174)
- Spent 107 seconds less compiling.
# Changes
- Adds CacheGivenTypesForCooking to UMaterialInterface and implemented for UMaterial and UMaterialInstance. This is responsible for compiling just the given types of shaders which is fully qualified by VF Type, Shader Type (or Shader Pipeline Type).
- Fully qualify each shader compile request from the client by FeatureLevel and QualityLevel. This way we don't compile multiple quality levels that aren't actively rendered with.
- CacheGivenTypesForCooking for UMaterial and UMaterialInterface explicity tries to re-use and find existing resources so we can progressively build up the shadermap while running.
- FMaterial::CacheGivenTypes now can compile shader pipelines.
- Adds CompileODSCMaterialsForRemoteRecompile which compiles just the requested shaders. This was because I wanted to leave the functionality in CompileMaterialsForRemoteRecompile alone.
- FShaderRecompileData now has a serialize function so the Load/Save serialize code can be the same on host and client.
- Made CompileMaterialsForRemoteRecompile compiled only for the Editor.
- Don't assert on needing complete shader maps when using ODSC.
- Mass conversion from NULL to nullptr in ShaderCompiler.cpp
- Refactoring some common code from RecompileShadersForRemote into separate functions.

Local light shadows are supported on mobile forward and deferred, need to enable full depth prepass to generate the ShadowMaskTexture.
Remove the 4 maximum local lights limitation on mobile forward.
Remove the "High Quality Reflection" on mobile forward.
Disable simple lights on mobile forward.

# Results
Modfiying WorldGridMaterial with two platforms open in platform stats.
- We compile a fixed number of shaders (less than 10 per platform) now instead of the 1078 shaders (per platform) w/ WorldGridMaterial.
- On average ProcessCompiledShaderMaps is 40x faster. (1727ms vs. 43ms)
- In the worst cast ProcessCompiledShaderMaps is 10.9x faster. (4865ms vs 445ms)
- The material editor in this scenario goes from unusable to useable.
# Changes
- Add `FMaterial::CacheGivenTypes` to compile just the shader types given to it.
- Call `GetRepresentativeShaderTypesAndDescriptions` to gather the shader types we care about and only submit jobs to compile those shaders when generating platform stats.
- Since we are no longer compile a complete shader map the ShaderCount is incorrect. Now we call `GetShaderTypes` of the `FMaterialResource` to gather the number of shaders in the material. This function doesn't trigger shader compilation which is important.
- Adding const to the following functions:
- FMaterial::GetShaderTypesForLayout
- FMaterial::GetShaderTypes
- FMaterial::GetShaderTypes is now ENGINE_API so we can call it from the Material Editor.
- Add `TBasePassPSFCachedVolumeIndirectLightingPolicy` shader type to FMaterialStatsUtils::GetRepresentativeShaderTypesAndDescriptions. This shader has the worst case sampler count. This ensures we compile this shader and are able to query the worst case sampler count for the platform stats. This is very ad-hoc, and could be improved in the future.

Setters and getters are native functions called by FProperties when setting property values with *_InContainer functions.
Setters and getter function names can be manually specified with Setter = Func and Getter = Func keywords inside of UPROEPRTY macro but they will also be automatically parsed if the name is not explicitly specified if the setter or getter function name matches SetPropertyName and GetPropertyName pattern.
The latter behavior can be disabled in UHT's DefaultEngine.ini by setting AutomaticSettersAndGetters=False.
ImportText and ExportTextItem functions have been deprecated and should be replaced with *_InContainer or *_Direct variants.
