Only other layers are allowed pin-based inputs. The legacy linked graph system uses class properties.

**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

This is to be able to quickly hide all pins on linked graph nodes based on animation instance that expose a lot of properties

- Pose watches can now contain elements which represent different asspects of an anim nodes debug draw (i.e. bodies and constraints in RBAN)
- Elements can be used to enable anim node debug draw even when a node is not selected, acting in the same way as the previous pose watches
- The previous Pose watch behavior is now provided by an element within a pose watch
- RBAN nodes now make use of Pose Watch Elements
- Moved skeleton draw parameter UPROPERTIES from PoseWatch to specialised PoseWatchPoseElement class
