- In the last year we have started to make changes to the package format to allow data to be stored in the same file, but not actually inside of the package itself (See FPackageTrailer) and we might consider moving some other data blobs there in the future. This change has meant that there are code paths that can change things with the package file, that don't actually call save package, such as the process that virtualizes assets and can leave incorrect, stale data in the content browser tool tip.
-- This means when a user virtualizes an asset, the tooltip might indicate that it has not been virtualized and the size of the file on disk has not been changed until they browser to a different folder and browse back to refresh. This has caused people to believe that the virtualization operation has failed.
- This change hooks up UContentBrowserAssetDataSource to trigger a EContentBrowserItemUpdateType::Modified event when ever the package file changes on disk.
- During package save this could trigger multiple EContentBrowserItemUpdateType::Modified events for the same package (one from saving and one from the file being modified) but it looks like duplicate events already occur (if the packages are checked out as part of the save, this will introduce another EContentBrowserItemUpdateType::Modified event). There is a TODO in the code that suggests we might want to spend time removing duplicates events before broadcasting the delegate but when profiling I found that the overhead is quite low. In one test, saving 20 packages cost 4ms for the events triggered by the save and an additional 4ms for the events triggered by the file changing on disk. With the margins being so low it still doesn't look like a problem that is worth spending time on, however I did add a TRACE_CPUPROFILER_EVENT_SCOPE to the broadcasting of the delegate (UContentBrowserDataSubsystem::ItemDataUpdatedDelegate) so if it does become a problem in the future it will be easier to track down.

These are currently used to display the asset that are hidden by a backend class permission system.
They can also be restricted to some path only if desired.
Note: We will do a UX pass for the unsupported items after this is submitted and later we will also add some support for the unsupported asset to the alias data source.

Iteration on Jason Stasiks CL 17314610. This is a minimal version of CL 17314610 which adds a 'view' method to AssetTypeActions which is now attempted whenever an activated item's 'edit' attempt fails.
The matching CL for the restricted FAssetTypeActions_VerseClass changes is 22472079.

[CL 21142427 by jason stasik in ue5-main branch]
This change consists of multiple changes:
Core:
- Deprecation of ANY_PACKAGE macro. Added ANY_PACKAGE_DEPRECATED macro which can still be used for backwards compatibility purposes (only used in CoreUObject)
- Deprecation of StaticFindObjectFast* functions that take bAnyPackage parameter
- Added UStruct::GetStructPathName function that returns FTopLevelAssetPath representing the path name (package + object FName, super quick compared to UObject::GetPathName) + wrapper UClass::GetClassPathName to make it look better when used with UClasses
- Added (Static)FindFirstObject* functions that find a first object given its Name (no Outer). These functions are used in places I consider valid to do global UObject (UClass) lookups like parsing command line parameters / checking for unique object names
- Added static UClass::TryFindType function which serves a similar purpose as FindFirstObject however it's going to throw a warning (with a callstack / maybe ensure in the future?) if short class name is provided. This function is used in places that used to use short class names but now should have been converted to use path names to catch any potential regressions and or edge cases I missed.
- Added static UClass::TryConvertShortNameToPathName utility function
- Added static UClass::TryFixShortClassNameExportPath utility function
- Object text export paths will now also include class path (Texture2D'/Game/Textures/Grass.Grass' -> /Script/Engine.Texture2D'/Game/Textures/Grass.Grass')
- All places that manually generated object export paths for objects will now use FObjectPropertyBase::GetExportPath
- Added a new startup test that checks for short type names in UClass/FProperty MetaData values
AssetRegistry:
- Deprecated any member variables (FAssetData / FARFilter) or functions that use FNames to represent class names and replaced them with FTopLevelAssetPath
- Added new member variables and new function overloads that use FTopLevelAssetPath to represent class names
- This also applies to a few other modules' APIs to match AssetRegistry changes
Everything else:
- Updated code that used ANY_PACKAGE (depending on the use case) to use FindObject(nullptr, PathToObject), UClass::TryFindType (used when path name is expected, warns if it's a short name) or FindFirstObject (usually for finding types based on user input but there's been a few legitimate use cases not related to user input)
- Updated code that used AssetRegistry API to use FTopLevelAssetPaths and USomeClass::StaticClass()->GetClassPathName() instead of GetFName()
- Updated meta data and hardcoded FindObject(ANY_PACKAGE, "EEnumNameOrClassName") calls to use path names
