Find-in-Blueprints now uses the same search data for both Find-in-all-Blueprints and Find-in-Blueprint. That searchdata is no longer stored in the asset registry, it is stored in the DDC and is managed by a new class. Searching is multithreaded to reduce overhead on the main thread during long searches in large projects.
virtual UEdGraphNode::AddSearchMetaDataInfo which sets base find-in-blueprints metadata and can be overriden with more detailed search data.
#change UEdGraphPin::GetDefaultAsString will return the text value as string if set
Added FBlueprintEditorUtils::GetEntryAndResultNode, moving most of the functionality from FBlueprintGraphActionDetails::SetEntryAndResultNodes to the new function
Added FBlueprintEditorUtils::GetGraphDescription to get graph descriptions from their metadata
Added FBlueprintEditorUtils::GetNodeByGUID to find nodes using their Guid
Blueprints now cache their search metadata on compile, this is a CPU intensive process and can no longer occur every time the Asset Registry queries for the Blueprint's tags
#change Fixed an issue with finding a pin type's icon (UK2Node_Variable::GetVarIconFromPinType) where we would search for a class we already had available.
Added an overridable function to UEdGraphNode to collect Blueprint search metadata.
#change FJsonObjectConverter::UPropertyToJsonValue is now available outside of the .cpp
#change Rewrote how Find-in-Blueprints works both for local and global searches, now uses Json to resolve a variety of format issues and also to make it much more extensible.

There is now a consistent set of methods for module loading, unloading and lookup that all behave in the same expected way.
- renamed GetModuleInterface to GetModule and made it not assert
- removed GetModuleInterfaceRef
- namespace enums to enum classes, NULL to nullptr
- moved important public methods to the top, so they're easier to discover
- added missing & improved existing documentation
- cleaned up existing use cases

TTP# 338166 - CRITICAL: Regression: UFE: CRASH: Deleting a profile under the Advanced section
Some places are using this only to get the icon information, so they now use an empty brush should the platform information not be found (it shouldn't really happen, but the device information may sometimes be missing a valid target platform name).
Also made sure that any missing icons wouldn't cause list views to misalign their content.
