UETOOL-292 - Diffing of Behavior Trees doesn't work correctly
- Added support for diffing decorators and services.
- Ensured that you could see the properties of services and decorators in the diff tool.
- This is now using common code shared with the behavior tree editor (to avoid this getting out of sync again).
- Fixed an issue where nodes containing changes could still be drawn faded out.
- The "DiffR_" functions in GraphDiffControl weren't marking the node as changed since the diff results couldn't hold the information.
- Fixed SNodePanel::DeferredMovementTargetObject always moving the selection into view (rather than itself).
- Added a way to move to a node without also selecting it (SNodePanel::CenterObject).
- This is needed as decorators and services don't exist as top-level nodes in the SNodePanel, so can't be centered on. We instead have to center on their container node.
- Added a way to control what items you want to diff.
- This helps when checking for nodes that have been removed, as you can now avoid having to re-check all the other properties on the node, and just check for their existence (or lack thereof).

Introduces the concept of "Active Ticking" to allow Slate to go to sleep when there is no need to update the UI.
While asleep, Slate will skip the Tick & Paint pass for that frame entirely.
- There are TWO ways to "wake" Slate and cause a Tick/Paint pass:
1. Provide some sort of input (mouse movement, clicks, and key presses). Slate will always tick when the user is active.
- Therefore, if the logic in a given widget's Tick is only relevant in response to user action, there is no need to register an active tick.
2. Register an Active Tick. Currently this is an all-or-nothing situation, so if a single active tick needs to execute, all of Slate will be ticked.
- The purpose of an Active Tick is to allow a widget to "drive" Slate and guarantee a Tick/Paint pass in the absence of any user action.
- Examples include animation, async operations that update periodically, progress updates, loading bars, etc.
- An empty active tick is registered for viewports when they are real-time, so game project widgets are unaffected by this change and should continue to work as before.
- An Active Tick is registered by creating an FWidgetActiveTickDelegate and passing it to SWidget::RegisterActiveTick()
- There are THREE ways to unregister an active tick:
1. Return EActiveTickReturnType::StopTicking from the active tick function
2. Pass the FActiveTickHandle returned by RegisterActiveTick() to SWidget::UnregisterActiveTick()
3. Destroy the widget responsible for the active tick
- Sleeping is currently disabled, can be enabled with Slate.AllowSlateToSleep cvar
- There is currently a little buffer time during which Slate continues to tick following any input. Long-term, this is planned to be removed.
- The duration of the buffer can be adjusted using Slate.SleepBufferPostInput cvar (defaults to 1.0f)
- The FCurveSequence API has been updated to work with the active tick system
- Playing a curve sequence now requires that you pass the widget being animated by the sequence
- The active tick will automatically be registered on behalf of the widget and unregister when the sequence is complete
- GetLerpLooping() has been removed. Instead, pass true as the second param to Play() to indicate that the animation will loop. This causes the active tick to be registered indefinitely until paused or jumped to the start/end.

#info this issue came about after recent changes to slate resulted in OnHitTest no longer being called by design. This changelist seeks to eliminate the requirement for this by correctly sorting the comments in arrangedchildren.

* Moved Slate.h into SlateBasics.h and began shifting less commonly used headers into SlateExtras.h.
* Slate.h now simply includes SlateBasics.h and SlateExtras.h.
* Slate.h includes a deprecated warning now to indicate that SlateBasics.h + specific includes should be used instead.
* Moved dozens of inlined functions using Slate widgets into .cpp files to avoid header dependencies.
* All code samples now include SlateBasics.h and SlateExtras.h so future shifts will not break most those projects, but not trigger the deprecation warning of including Slate.h.

Slate TPanelChildren, TSlotlessChildren are no longer full-fledged arrays; removed any unused Array API.
Fixed up a lot of improper use cases.
This better encapsulates the action of adding/removing Slate Widgets from the runtime tree as a Slate Core concern.
Alows us to add parent pointers in the future with significantly less effort.

Added new widget overlay system for graph panels, designed to allow more flexibilty than the current brush-only implementation. This requred a small refactor to avoid the assumption that all child widgets of an SNodePanel are SNodes (and because there is no usable RTTI present).
Added index widget overlay to BT graph nodes.
Added flag to parent nodes to allow us to change the appearance of child nodes when another child is hovered.
