API break: added a new pure virtual to IAssetEditorInstance - InvokeTab().
Tutorials were attempting to load a bogus asset for editing for each stage, causing stalls each time the user clicked Next.
Re-arranged code that attempted to open asset editor tabs so that it wasnt attempting ot open a bogus asset (used the correct member).
Order of tab manager preference is now Per-stage Blueprint asset editor->Per-'tutorial asset' editor->level editor.
Added new function to allow us to open tabs in asset editors. This avoids a dangerous up-cast to FAssetEditorToolkit to access its tab manager.

FText DisplayString shared ptrs are persisted across property edits. This preserves their entry in the live table and also updates the string that the entry points to. We call GetString() to update the hashed value as persisting the DisplayString means that its location in the table is preserved.
On serialization, a valid key is still found in the live table for the display string, so the key is preserved.
Added funtionality to the property editor to allow key editing and re-generation so any key conflicts can be resolved in the future.
UE-5350 - As a translator, I would like the editor tutorial text to preserve it's history between changes in order to greatly improve the translation workflow.

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.

- Default value is 100 instead of 0 to allow other factories to have both higher or lower priority than the default.
- Sorting is highest to lowest so factories with higher priority values go first.
Use ImportPriority to sort reimporting factories.

Where dynamic event names were being constructed from tutorial assets, now reworked events to add a dynamic parameter.

The display name, filter string, and tooltips for the property editor (and associated detail customizations) are now stored as FText rather than FString. This allows us to remove SLATE_TEXT_ARGUMENT from the detail customization widgets.

You could previously only have them enabled or hidden, you can now add them as disabled.
You can also now bind the menu item state to a delegate to let it update after the tab spawner has been registered.

- made public headers compilable individually
- easier access to settings section delegates
- removed module singleton accessor
- moved non-trivial definitions into cpp files
- code & documentation cleanup
#UpgradeNotes:
- instead of ISettingsModule::Get() use FModuleManager::GetModulePtr<ISettingsModule>("Settings")
- instead of using FSettingsSectionDelegates assign delegates directly through the new ISettingsSection methods

Tutorials now return a valid UWorld, enabling audio playback, timers and all sorts of good stuff.
Stage started event now fires on first stage.
Skipping a stage from BP now rebuilds content properly.
Added events for tutorial launch and close.

* 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.

Tweaked styles and layout to better suit a tab.
Also fixed browser not showing some tutorials if all assets are not yet loaded.
Progress is now updated periodically as the browser can be now open while a tutorial is in progress.
