Added the capacitity to the AssetImportData to resolve a source file name without a loaded package.
This also fixes the issues where the editor is not able to find the source file during a reimport or simply navigating to that file via the content browser.

Added a system to cache some data that can be used when recompiling the filters for the incremental data updates.
For now this only used by for the asset data source internal path compilation of the asset views.
In my test on a bad scenario this yielded a reduction 98% of the time it take to call UContentBrowserAssetDataSource::CreateAssetFilter when the cache is used.
Before the optimization the reference call took 26.3 ms
After the optimization the reference call took 0.3725 ms
Also this change fix an issue with my last change interacting badly with the alias data source by not using its customization of the package paths hierarchy.

For a large project with a lot paths with a recursive search on all the folder the change reduced time it took to create the filter by ~86%.
Before the change a function call took 191.3 ms
After the change the same function call took 25.8 ms

- Profiling showed 60ms->10ms, improving the responsiveness.
- Calling IAssetTools::GetNewAssetFactories is relatively expensive, so I added an overload of FindFactoriesInCategory that can have a TArray of factories passed to it and then calling IAssetTools::GetNewAssetFactories only once, rather than one time per category as was being done

* Plugins that only contain cooked content (and have no C++ modules) no longer show their "Content" suffix.
* Folders that only contain private cooked content are no longer visible in the asset or path views.

This also fix an issue with the redirectors not being displayed by ContentBrowser.

- In the last year we have started to make changes to the package format to allow data to be stored in the same file, but not actually inside of the package itself (See FPackageTrailer) and we might consider moving some other data blobs there in the future. This change has meant that there are code paths that can change things with the package file, that don't actually call save package, such as the process that virtualizes assets and can leave incorrect, stale data in the content browser tool tip.
-- This means when a user virtualizes an asset, the tooltip might indicate that it has not been virtualized and the size of the file on disk has not been changed until they browser to a different folder and browse back to refresh. This has caused people to believe that the virtualization operation has failed.
- This change hooks up UContentBrowserAssetDataSource to trigger a EContentBrowserItemUpdateType::Modified event when ever the package file changes on disk.
- During package save this could trigger multiple EContentBrowserItemUpdateType::Modified events for the same package (one from saving and one from the file being modified) but it looks like duplicate events already occur (if the packages are checked out as part of the save, this will introduce another EContentBrowserItemUpdateType::Modified event). There is a TODO in the code that suggests we might want to spend time removing duplicates events before broadcasting the delegate but when profiling I found that the overhead is quite low. In one test, saving 20 packages cost 4ms for the events triggered by the save and an additional 4ms for the events triggered by the file changing on disk. With the margins being so low it still doesn't look like a problem that is worth spending time on, however I did add a TRACE_CPUPROFILER_EVENT_SCOPE to the broadcasting of the delegate (UContentBrowserDataSubsystem::ItemDataUpdatedDelegate) so if it does become a problem in the future it will be easier to track down.

These are currently used to display the asset that are hidden by a backend class permission system.
They can also be restricted to some path only if desired.
Note: We will do a UX pass for the unsupported items after this is submitted and later we will also add some support for the unsupported asset to the alias data source.
