The locking was redundant since the annotation maps are managed per thread anyway.

Includes conversion of all UProperty::ConvertFromType() and SerializeFromMismatchedTag() functions to use structured archives
Lazy initialization of FArchiveFromStructruredArchive when loading, to support the possibility of an adapter being create around an object property serialize call to its inner UStruct, which then decides not to do anything and return false. Stops the ArchiveFromStructuredArchive from consuming the slot and getting upset later on when we try to serialize normal tagged properties from it.
Disabled lazy bulk data loading from text assets. Requires a bigger change to make it work.
Added some debug checks to json input formatter which track the current value stack size when a new object is pushed onto the stack, and makes sure that the stack has returned to the same size when the object is popped. Catches cases where we unpack an array/stream to the value stack but then don't consume all the items.

Added assign method to Python exposed structs
This lets you assign the value of one struct instance onto another instance (rather than copy the pointer in Python). It also accepts anything that casts to the destination struct.

[CONSOLE] [+] Improved Scoped Named Events
- Added SCOPED_NAMED_EVENT(_FSTRING/_TEXT/_F) macros to allow use of string literals, FString and printf in scoped named event strings.
- Replaced explicit use of FPlatformMisc::Begin/EndNamedEvent throughout the engine with macros, so the events can be compiled out.
- Fixed performance issues on various platforms with named events. SCOPED_NAMED_EVENT macros were not considering whether the platform uses wide or ansi char strings.
Change 3813513 by Ben.Woodhouse
CSV profiler refactor+ bug fix
- Move the CSV profiler to core, so we can use it in modules other than engine
- Profiler no longer enqueues RT commands - this is handled by a new core delegate type
- Make begin/end requests more robust, enqueued via a command queue and processed in order
- Defer end capture requests by a frame. This ensures stats on threads other than the gamethread (e.g. renderthread etc) are complete, so the last frame is not truncated
- Fix long-standing bug with multiple captures where old/stale frames would appear in the first <128 frames of captures
- Move unit stats and dynamic resolution out of the profiler itself and into the engine. Only frametime is recorded in the profiler now
- Fix longstanding bug in first frame renderthread time in the engine
Change 3814039 by Ben.Woodhouse
More Csvprofiler improvements
- Event support (via CSV_EVENT macros). These appear in the "EVENTS" column of the CSV and can be used to add context to the stat data
- Reduced memory overhead for timestamps through bit-packing (now 16 bytes per marker instead of 24), and splitting stats into different types
Change 3814229 by Ben.Woodhouse
Integrate + refactor of CL 3792591 to reduce complexity and fix bugs
Original changelist description:
CSV profiler improvements:
- The CSV profiler is now always compiled in on the server
- The CSV profiler can now handle both int32 and float stats
- In BeginCapture, the function can take additional arguments for some customization of filenames
Fixes to the above:
- Remove FCustomValue class
- Fixes bug where all timestamp values from CSV_SCOPED_STATs were garbage (due to issues resulting from FCustomValue type ambiguity when adding values together)
- FCsvCustomStat now just uses simple union + bitfield flag to reduce size and complexity (4 bytes instead of 8 per value)
- FCsvColumn class modified to use doubles, which can represent both ints and floats without loss of precision - this class is not memory or time critical
- Replace multiple overrides used by the server for filenameprefix/folder/postfix etc with a single FilenameOverride
Change 3817339 by Ben.Woodhouse
Duplicate from 3816641: CSV profiler improvements
- Added a low-pri processing thread to compress raw timing data into a much more efficient format
- Reduces memory usage for 15 minute 30k frame capture with GPU stats enabled from 110MB to 3.4MB
- Processing time : 0.1ms per frame
- Improved name handling for char literal stats. We now use the string as the ID rather than the pointer so multiple stat uses of the same name string apply only to a single stat
- Reworked thread data access to eliminate locking for anything time-critical. Frame boundaries now handled via a lock-free helper class
- Fixed bug with queue implementation where 1 in 128 reads would duplicate the last block of stat data
- Reduced #include dependencies for CSVProfiler.h
- Removed AccumulateMax because it doesn't work, and implementing properly would add a lot of complexity
- Added a simple test harness

Change 3901590 by Anthony.Bills
Fix incorrect srv and sampler count when an array of textures or an array of samplers is used.
- The code originally set the local variable BindCount but did not pass this to the total sampler or srv count and instead used the original BindDesc.BindCount (which will be 1) and still skipped over those resource indicies.
- The code also checked for the array's bracket location but then only compared the resource names before the bracket, meaning non arrays could be included.
Change 3904065 by Anthony.Bills
Allow easily increasing the maximum number of SRVs to 64 in the D3D12RHI.
- Increasing to 64 will fix shader compilation issues when using more than 32 textures.
- Casting has been added to correct the type on bitshifting the masks when the type changes.
- A new type has been added for the bound VB mask to make sure bitshifting is explicitly typed.

[CONSOLE] [~] Improvements to game thread hitch detection.
- Allows the system to be configured by ini files.
- Fixes callstack addresses being truncated to 32 bits.
- Removes memory allocation in hitch callstack logging code. We use a pre-allocated 64KB buffer for this now. This was a memory leak anyway, as the memory was never freed.
- Performs a throwaway gamethread stack dump on launch, to prime the stack walker so we don't make gameplay hitches worse than they otherwise would be.
