Setters and getters are native functions called by FProperties when setting property values with *_InContainer functions.
Setters and getter function names can be manually specified with Setter = Func and Getter = Func keywords inside of UPROEPRTY macro but they will also be automatically parsed if the name is not explicitly specified if the setter or getter function name matches SetPropertyName and GetPropertyName pattern.
The latter behavior can be disabled in UHT's DefaultEngine.ini by setting AutomaticSettersAndGetters=False.
ImportText and ExportTextItem functions have been deprecated and should be replaced with *_InContainer or *_Direct variants.

The child struct properties can't inherit the sparse data flag, as FStructurePropertyNode is already directly editing a block of struct memory.

It was specifically looking for an object parent rather than a complex parent, which meant it skipped invalidating the cache when editing a struct (including a nested external struct) rather than an object.

This would try and get the value of the outer array property (for the inner array value) using FObjectBaseAddress::ObjectOrStruct as the start address, however for class sparse data FObjectBaseAddress::ObjectOrStruct was set to the CDO of the class that owns the sparse data, rather than the start of the sparse data itself. This resulted in a crash as it would try and read garbage from the CDO.
This change removes FObjectBaseAddress::ObjectOrStruct and FObjectBaseAddress::bIsStruct, in favor of storing FObjectBaseAddress::Object (if not editing a struct) and FObjectBaseAddress::StructAddress. FObjectBaseAddress::StructAddress always points to the thing that actually contains FObjectBaseAddress::BaseAddress, which allows the ImportText code to get the correct offset for the array property within the sparse data instance.

class UFoo
{
struct Bar { int X; } Bar;
int X;
}
Returning Bar.X instead of just X when searching for "X", because we were iterating into the struct's children before our own.
This entire behaviour is a bit questionable since it doesn't use property paths, and is presumably in place to deal with groups and not structs, but I'm not comfortable making that change without further testing.

This ensure is intended to check if we can simplify the logic here to just return the first object's default value in the near future.
