In restrictive mode, material instances could not inherit from a cooked material not in base modules. Now material instances can inherit from such restricted materials as long as they do not introduce a new static parameters permutation and thus a new shader. To prevent this, the UI disables the checkboxes that would trigger a new shader to be created (full validation is still performed at cook time, so even if a user manages to create a material instance with a static permutation, this would be rejected by the content worker).

Sparse Volume Texture asset from imported OpenVDB (only a single float channel for now). Static or animated sequence.
It will be possible to generate SVT at runtime from GPU later.
Using FEditorBulkData for handling raw source without loading everything when not caching or cooking.
BulkData used at runtime for loading. No streaming yet.
Importer with dependency on OpenVDB is in a SparseVolumeTexture module only loaded when in editor
Sparse volume texture can be sampled from any materials (sample, sample parameter) and overridden on material instance and material instance dynamic.
Added support for uint in compiler (fetch from page table, see SparseVolumeTextureGetVoxelCoord)
Volume texture with u8 VirtualTextureLayerIndex!=255 (INDEX_NONE) are sparse texture. The layer index then represent what texture/attribute to sample.

Also restores follow-up CLs 19973746, 19973782
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.

Primary goal is to reduce amount of code duplicated across different parameter types, and reduce amount of boilerplate required to add new parameters
The main part are new types FMaterialParameterValue, and FMaterialParameterMetadata (both in MaterialTypes.h). FMaterialParameterValue is a tagged union/variant type, that can represent any material parameter value. FMaterialParameterMetadata contains a value, along with various editor-only fields that describe how that value is used.
Using this new type, many places that previously included separate APIs for each parameter type collapse to a single API that operates on a FMaterialParameterValue/FMaterialParameterMetadata. Code that previously had a block copy/pasted for each parameter type can be replaced with a loop that iterates over all parameter types.
Also includes some API cleanup that should improve (editor) performance. Previously we had APIs GetAllScalarParameters, GetAllVectorParameters, etc, which would return a list of FMaterialParameterInfos for each parameter of the given type. Code would often query all parameters, then loop over the results and lookup each parameter value. Now there's a new API, GetAllParametersOfType, which returns a list of all FMaterialParameterMetadata of a given type. It's easy to just collect the values at the time we're building the list of parameters, so this saves the work of looking up each value individually.

SObjectPropertyEntryBox no longer has a CustomResetToDefault argument that was being ignored. Instead, all uses of it now directly use the FDetailWidgetRow OverrideResetToDefault().
