This takes the idea behind Braeden's node tracker/ancestor system and makes it a bit more generic, removing the bits of the API that were bound to FAnimNode_Base and allowing easier cross-plugin message dependencies.
The idea is that at any scope in the graph update you can add a TScopedGraphMessage with a specified payload (which can just be a node, but can also have state of its own), then further towards the leaves, that message can be detected and acted upon.
This changelist includes a re-working of the inter-node communication around inertial blending and cached poses as examples.

Fixed issue with sync group collisions when syncing with 'component' scope
This change moves sync group management to use a name->group map instead of indices. Staying with indices cannot work across multiple instances as they are simply allocated at the point the single anim BP is compiled, so can easily collide in anything other than simple configurations.
Deprecated all index based access to sync groups in the runtime. Sync groups can still be enumerated on the generated class.
#jira UE-101030 - Sync groups with non-local scope can collide, causing incorrect behaviour

+ Added SetSequenceLength
+ Moved GetPlayLength virtaul from AnimSequenceBase to AnimationAsset and deprecated GetMaxCurrentTime (only used in a single place)
