- Converted the font size to float, to allow specifying more precise size, and support the sizes that would be wanted at (for instance) 72 DPI, without losing information (ie rounding to the closest 96DPI int).
- Change various font caches behavior (glyph, advance, kerning...) to match behavior of Freetype, and ensure that a given size in Freetype will be stored only once in the font caches.
- Added cvar commands:
- Slate.DumpFontCacheStats: will display the list of all font combinations used, with the number of glyphs for each combination.
- Slate.FlushFontCache: will clear the font caches as well as the font atlases, then will invalidate all the widgets to force the cache to be refilled.
- Fixed the combo box for font typeface selection not disabled when necessary.
#tests:
- changed the Font display settings between various values and customDPI, validatet that everything was save correctly, and that the display was reacting to the value change.
- tested all the tooltips, simple, extended (ctrl + alt), and dynamic (display of the current DPI setting next to the font size).
- validated that the font atlas/cache was containing not more than one time each glyph rendered by Freetype.
- validated that the edition of the font size was still fully functionnal (spinbox, undo/redo, support of disable state,...).
- tested default value for a new project (72DPI).
- compiled Slate/SlateCore/UMG with UnsafeTypeCastWarningLevel = WarningLevel.Warning to fix warnings related to the change.
- tested in a game with latest changes from BP team (CL 26034633), ensuring that there are no regression related to the change of type (int to float) from the Font size.
- running with it in a game and UE branch for months.

Adds LandscapeInherited and LandscapeOverridable meta tag to mark shared properties.
Enforce synchronicity between shared properties when editing and loading ALandscape and LandscapeStreamingProxy.
Modifies ALandscapeProxy detail panel to reflect how the properties are shared.

- Added bone filter to Dead Blending node.
- Made inertialization rewind debugger tracks clickable.
- State machines no longer grey-out the blend parameters when an inertialization transition is selected.

Additional changes:
- Added warnings for users using anim state events since we want to push towards using the state node functions.
- Added support for anim nodes to show any bound functions and not have them hardcoded.
- Added base context type for FAnimExecutionContext.
- Now users can specify the string for the default binding name of a function member reference in a BP by using the "DefaultBindingName" metadata tag. This will give the functionality to avoid having the default binding name be "NewFunction" and instead use the input string from the metadata tag.

Currently, Landscape will only apply the new storage provider to it's heightmaps at cook time, when it sees that the landscape has been flagged to use the new compressed storage path (enabled under Landscape -> Advanced), and only for Windows platforms (to be expanded as we test other platforms).
The compressed storage path option on the landscape is hidden by default, and can be made visible via CVAR ("landscape.ShowCompressHeightMapsOption")
Makes use of a new All Mip Provider interface to Texture2Ds, that expands on the existing Mip Data Provider (that only supported providing streaming mips).
The new interface assumes you want to completely override the Texture2D mip data.
When Texture2D sees that it has an All Mip Provider, it will skip serializing it's own heavyweight mip data during cook, as it assumes the provider will take care of providing all mip data.
The majority of the implementation is in LandscapeTextureStorageProvider, which implements the AllMipProvider that can store landscape heightmaps in a custom compressed format. Each mip's height data is stored using delta encoding, and normals are reconstructed.

-Moving much of engine/source/runtime/headmounteddisplay to a plugin mainly to reduce minimum UE executable size and memory use. But this is also nice for organization. The ideal would be to move everything except interfaces used by core engine. VREditor pulling in UMotionControllerComponent is the main blocker at this time. That dependency is expected to go away eventually at which point we can do the rest of this transfer.
-Added dependencies to XRBase plugin or module as necessary, refactored to avoid some dependencies, removed a few unnecessary dependencies.
-Stripped vestigial VR references from a few project templates. Mostly just unused HeadMountedDisplay module refs, but a tiny bit of code from TP_Puzzle.
-Fixed dependency cycle ignores related to MaterialShaderQualitySettings PIEPreviewDeviceProfileSelector and UnrealEd. For reasons I do not understand the HeadMountedDisplay dependency on AugmentedReality was preventing the detection of those, long existent, cycles.

* Added actionable map checks for when shared properties on proxies are not up-to-date
* Save Modified Landscapes now acts as a way to fix every landscape actor that needs to be updated because of such discrepancies
* Fixed ModifiedPackages system in ULandscapeInfo so that :
** It bypasses temp packages (e.g. when creating a new map out of a template map that has discrepancies within its shared properties itself, we don't want the user to be notified since nothing has been saved yet and all will be synchronized once the actors are)
** It doesn't act on actors belong to any other world type than Editor (e.g. we don't want the user to be notified when entering PIE since properties will be properly synchronized automatically and nothing needs to be saved afterwards)
** It doesn't do anything upon rolling back a transaction (e.g. since property sharing synchronization (i.e. FixupSharedData) runs on PostRegisterAllComponents, it would report the problem to the user while if we're undoing, we're already dirty anyway)
