Optional ability to clamp rotation speed, and choose the method of rotation (lerp or constant)

Runtime notes:
- Removes 'smart name' usage across the animation systems.
- Changed curve blending from a uniform array (sized per skeleton) to a sparse array of sorted named values. Blends and other combiners are performed using a dual iteration 'tape merge'.
- Skeleton curves are no longer guaranteed to cover all curve names that can be found at runtime.
Editor notes:
- Curve metadata (flags, bone links etc.) is still present on the skeleton, but can also now exist on a skeletal mesh
- Curve metadata (for morph targets) is still populated on import
- Curves can now be used arbitrarily at runtime
New features:
- New Find/Replace dialog that allows for batch-replacing curves and notifies across all of a project's assets
- New curve debugger tab in various Persona editors that allows for viewing curve values live. This also now allows viewing curves for specific pose watches.
- Pose watches now output curve tracks to the Rewind Debugger

Remove the ensure from the CalculateRootTransformRelativeToWarpPointAtTime since we can get there by user error and it shouldn't make the system crash. We need to just notify the user so it could change the skeleton or fix the motion warping notify to use the right bone

**Animation Data Model load/cook time and memory optimizations**
- Added SetKeysOnly to FMovieSceneFloatChannel, allowing to only set value/frames values and skip allocating key handles
- Added EvaluateWithCache to TMovieSceneCurveChannelImpl, allowing to evaluate multiple curves using a caching data structure holding the frame-indices resulting from the FrameTime -> indexes calculationg
- UFKControlRig::GetControlName/GetControlTargetName, added thread_local mapping cache and optimized FName generation
- Made the sequencer bone curve keys 'sparse' again, if constant it just sets the default value for the curve otherwise it is still uniform
- Only resample keys when compressing, and clear them on any significant model changes and when save-during-cook has been completed
- Routed ::Presave for AnimSequencerDataModel directly through to UMovieSceneSignedObject to skip compiling cooked sequencer that that will/should never cooked and packaged
- Added some significant pass-by-reference changes to AnimSequencerModel APIs (passing large arrays by value previously) :doh:
- Optimized GenerateLegacyBoneData
Original CL description:
**New**
- Engine
- IAnimationDataModel interface
- AnimationData plugin
- AnimSequencerDataModel, sequencer based implementation of IAnimationDataModel
- AnimSequencerDataController, controller for above (implementation of IAnimationDataController)
- Added FCompressedRichCurve::PopulateCurve, allowing users to convert back to a FRichCurve for validation/debugging
- Added DefaultFrameRate to AnimationSettings, this replaces the hardcoded 30FPS in code
- Added ::GetKeyIndicesFromTime which takes FFrameRate
- Added AnimSequenceBase::OnAnimModelLoaded, this is required for correct postloading behaviour of data model (specifically AnimSequencerDataModel, as it depends on data from its outer ? anim sequence)
- Added IAnimationDataModel ::Evaluate which now takes responsibility for evaluating raw animation bone, curve and attribute data. And moved all trackbased evaluation code into AnimDataModel.cpp
- Added a.ForceEvalRawData allowing to force evaluation of source data
- Added a.SkipDDC to force compressing animation data locally
**Changed**
- Reparent UAnimDataModel to IAnimationDataModel interface, and rejig behaviour
- AnimSequenceBase now reference AnimDataModel as IAnimationDataModel
- Upgrade path for legacy to IAnimationDataModel and existing UAnimDataModel to IAnimationDataModel through IAnimationDataController::PopulateWithExisting
- IAnimationDataModel data is now frame(number/rate/time) based rather than seconds/keyindices. This enforces frameborder aligned data from now on.
- Moved RichCurve evaluation code from RichCurve.cpp to separate file and consolidated all instances of copy-pasta behaviour
- Updated/removed deprecated EngineTests around AnimSequences
- Changed many instances to use a FFrameTime together with a known FFrameRate versus seconds and sequencelength in float involving frame \/ time calculations (including instances of FAnimKeyHelper)
- Switched anim sequence evaluation to use double in Extraction context for time value and patched up places with static\_cast\<double\>
- FRichCurve::Eval
- Make sure we always evaluate keys when T >= Key0.Time and T <= KeyN.Time to deal with crazy userweighted tangents
- Fixed WeightedKeyDataAdapter::GetKeyInterpMode/GetKeyTangentWeightMode retrieving invalid values, as it was indexing according to KeyIndex rather than KeyIndex\*2. This made it so that values were misinterpreted.
- Fixed WeightedEvalForTwoKeys for compressed data retrieving GetKeyInterpMode and GetKeyTangentWeightMode using the wrong index value. As they are not indexed using KeyDataHandle type.
- Fixed issue where compression could crash when containing zero-key scale additivebase track (tries to retrieve)
- Replaced instances of NULL with nullptr
- Moved required decompression information into FAnimSequenceDecompressionContext and reimplemented decompression within UE::Anim::Decompression namespace and new file
- Deprecated ::GetRawDataGuid and replaced with GetDataModel()->GenerateGuid()
- Fixed UAnimStreamable evaluation/compression (previously broken with MVC refactor)
- Updated Animation exporting pipeline to be frame-based rather than seconds
- Deprecated RetargetPose, replaced with FRetargetingScope (used within AnimModel::Evaluate)
- Fixed BaseAdditiveAnimation array become invalid/incorrect when removing zero-additve tracks during compression
- Updated EngineTest animation sequence related tests to new APIs (while maintaining deprecated path testing as well for now)
- AnimDataController / Animation Sequence tests now generate a USkeleton for the transient animation sequence (used to perform the test on)
**Removed**
- Unused file/class AnimData/AnimDataNotifyCollector.h
