+ Support for editing most geometric parameters (Joint Offsets, Box Extents, Collision Planes etc) with a TRS Widget.
+ Allow parameters to be edited for each individual physics body in a chain.
+ DEPRECATED some physics body properties, these are now held in an array, one instance per physics body.
+ Changed definition of LocalJointOffset - was joint position relative to physics body, now physics body position relative to joint
+ Fix for apparent bug in position constraints between chain bodies.
+ Added a new AnimDynamics Edit Mode to support new widget features.
+ Changes to details panel layout.

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

- Added animation notify mirroring functionality
- Extended IGraphMessage to allow users to create context data that is attached to notifies
- Notify, NotifyBegin, NotifyTick, and NotifyEnd methods have been extedned to take an FAnimNotifyEventReference that can provide generic data
- StateMachines can optionally attach active state information to notifies
- Added function libraries to query if a notify was triggered by a particular state or state machine
- Added support for detecting if a notify was generated by a mirrored animation

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

Fixed drag/drop of samples in blend space graphs.
Fixed issues around replacing samples and stale anim graph tabs when replacing/deleting samples.
Prevented sample point graph duplication from My Blueprint.
Preserved sync groups when converting from players to graphs.

[CL 15216418 by Thomas Sarkanen in ue5-main branch]
Added a new animation graph node that hosts its own UBlendSpaceBase. Modified UBlendSpaceBase to allow for pose links to be evaluated as the sample points.
The new blend space graphs can be spawned from existing UBlendSpace and UBlendSpace1D assets, or they can be created from scratch, or they can be converted from existing blendspace player nodes via the context menu.
Fixed anim node conversion functions so that their transactions work correctly.
Updated FBlueprintEditorUtils::IsGraphNameUnique to allow it to work with any object as the outer, not just UBlueprint. UBlueprint still has a special case for functions and events. This is to support GenerateUniqueGraphName within a scope (e.g. an outer graph).
Formalized the concept of 'node sub-graphs' (as well as the composite node pattern a little). Previously a number of known node types that contained sub-graphs (e.g. UK2Node_Composite) had special case logic for dealing with node/graph deletion etc. Now any node can opt into this behaviour via the GetSubGraphs() override.
Added status bar readouts for the blendspace grid, so we dont have to stuff the prompts into the tooltip any more.
Moved anim BP related APIs out of FBlueprintEditor. They are always used via FAnimationBlueprintEditor.
Refactored graph title bar widget creation out into a function to allow other document tab factories to create it.
Altered breadcrumb trail click callbacks and SMyBlueprint::ExecuteAction to always JumpToHyperLink rather than calling OpenDocument directly. This allows unknown (to FBlueprintEditor) document types that reference objects to be correctly jumped to using the breadcrumb trail. Derived asset editors (i.e. FAnimationBlueprintEditor) can intercept the JumpToHyperlink call to ensure that the correct document is presented (i.e. the correct tab payload is generated).
Instead of making yet another bunch of duplicated code for handling the various alpha blend options, refactored this into FAnimGraphNodeAlphaOptions (for editor code) and FAnimNodeAlphaOptions (for runtime code).
Added OnCopyTermDefaultsToDefaultObject for per-node copying of default values from editor node to runtime node, rather than another special-case in the compiler.
