Jurre deBaare f24003f082 Animation data MVC refactor
#jira UE-104234
#rb Thomas.Sarkanen, Martin.Wilson, Alexis.Matte, Michael.Zyracki

+ Introduced UAnimDataModel, this currently represents the source data for bone and curve animation. It contains:
    + Bone animation tracks (FBoneAnimationTrack)
        + Key data (coarse)
        + Name
        + Bone tree index
    + Curve data (FAnimationCurveData)
        + Float Curves
        + Transform Curves
    + Play length
    + Sampling rate
        + Used for deriving the expected number of keys/frames when combined with the PlayLength
    + Transient data for supporting backwards compatibility APIs
    + (Dynamic) delegate which broadcasts the mutation Notifies

+ Introduced UAnimDataController, this has sole authority over mutating data contained by UAnimDataModel
    + API functionality allows to transform the contained data in all ways currently expected in the engine.
        + Any mutation will add an undo/redo-able FChange object into the transaction buffer
            + FChangeTransactor helper object allows for keeping track of (compounded) FChange's and inserting them into GUndo
        + Broadcasts change notifies alongside a payload object containing details about the change
            + Interested systems/objects can register to these changes through UAnimDataModel::OnModelModified event
        + Almost all functionality is exposed to both Blueprint and Python scripting
    + Allows for opening 'Brackets', these define the beginning and end of a chain of mutations. Allowing anything registered to OnModelModified to halt responding to the notifies until the (top-level) bracket is closed
    + Undo/redo actions
        + Each mutation to the UAnimDataModel is covered by a 'Action' which is based of FChange and is used to insert a undo/redo-able operation into the transactions buffer

+ Introduced EAnimDataModelNotifType and per-notify payload types. These are used to update views, and any model derived data

+ Introduced FAnimationCurveIdentifier, exposed to scripting, this is used for referencing a curve by name and type when passed to the controller
    + Allows for targetting a specific RichCurve as part of a TransformCurve

+ Introduced FAnimationDataNotifyCollectorused for keeping track of which notifies of type EAnimDataModelNotifType are broadcasted between top-level EAnimDataModelNotifType::BracketOpened and EAnimDataModelNotifType::BracketClosed notifies

+ Added CanTransact to UEngine, returns whether or not a transaction can be made

+ Added UAnimCompositeBase::SetCompositeLength, used for runtime changing of play length value

+ Animation Sequence helpers, containing 'helper' functionality for both AnimSequence and AnimDataModel

* Animation Sequence Base
    + virtual PopulateModel, called during upgrade path for converting existing (legacy) data to the new UAnimDataModel data
    + virtual OnModelModified, registered to the Model's OnModified event to handle any Notifies and payloads
    + Added UAnimDataModel sub-object (editor only)
    + Added UAnimDataController instance (transient and editor only)
    + FAnimationDataNotifyCollector to keep track of model bracketed notifies
    * Deprecated
        * SetSequenceLength()
        * RefreshCurveData()
        * MarkRawDataAsModified()
        * RegisterOnAnimCurvesChanged()
        * UnregisterOnAnimCurvesChanged()
        * UnregisterOnAnimTrackCurvesChanged()
        * RegisterOnAnimTrackCurvesChanged()
        * Public access to RawCurveData

* Animation Sequence
    + Implements PopulateModel/OnModelModified for AnimationSequence related data
    + Added TargetFrameRate, currently locked to the initial sampling rate, but allows for resampling the UAnimDataModel data according to the set rate
    + Added NumberOfSampledKeys (editor only), populated by resampling process
    + Added NumberOfSampledFrames (editor only), populated by resampling process
    + Added ResampledAnimationTrackData (editor only and transient), populated by resampling process
    + Added bBlockCompressionRequests (editor only), used for blocking compression during automation tests
    * Deprecated
        * SetNumberOfSampledKeys()
        * MarkRawDataAsModified()
        * GetRawAnimationData()
        * GetAnimationTrackNames()
        * AddNewRawTrack()
        * GetRawTrackToSkeletonMapTable()
        * GetRawAnimationTrack()
        * GetRawAnimationTrack()
        * UpdateFrameRate()
        * ExtractBoneTransform()
        * CompressRawAnimData()
        * GetSkeletonIndexFromRawDataTrackIndex()
        * RecycleAnimSequence()
        * CleanAnimSequenceForImport()
        * CopyNotifies()
        * PostProcessSequence()
        * AddLoopingInterpolation()
        * RemoveAllTracks()
        * DoesContainTransformCurves()
        * InsertFramesToRawAnimData()
        * CropRawAnimData()
        * RemoveTrack()
        * InsertTrack()
        * ResizeSequence()
        * Non-editor access to GetUncompressedRawSize()
        * Non-editor access to GetApproxRawSize()
        * Public access to UpdateCompressedCurveName()
        * NumberOfKeys
        * SamplingFrameRate
        * TrackToSkeletonMapTable
        * RawAnimationData
        * AnimationTrackNames

* Animation Streamable
    * Model from source Sequence is duplicated rather than copying animation data

* Deprecated ERawCurveTrackTypes::RCT_Vector (marked as hidden)

+ Added automated test for
    + All script exposed controller functionality
    + Undo/redo actions
* Updated existing AnimSequence tests with deprecation and new expected data

+ Base data for compression is now populated from the 'resampled' version stored on the AnimSequence
+ Data cleanup and validation is now performed during compression
    + Track sanitization is now performed during compression (normalizing Quats and clamping near-zero values to zero)
    + Key reduction
    + Invalid track (missing bone from skeleton) removal
    + Curve name validation against skeleton
* Replaced RawCurves with Float curves
* Updated DDC key
- Removed all Guid generation related functionality (now part of the model)

* AnimSequenceBase model registers to AnimModel's notify event, used for refreshing the tracks
    * Replaces the in-place calling of RefreshTracks()
* All curve tracks now hold a const CurveType* rather than a CurveType*/& for introspection of its data
    + Any mutations now go through the controller API
    + Uses AnimationCurveIdentifier to set Transform's per-channel tracks
* RichCurveEditorModelNamed conformed to model/controller
    + Any modifications are applied to an temporary CurveType which always contains a copy of the const-ptr after any previous mutation
    + Registers to the outer AnimModel's notify event, used for updating the cached curve data
    + Registers to CurveModifiedDelegate, used for copying the temp curve data to the model using SetCurveKeys
        * Not-ideal but point that I got to for V1
        * Would be replaced with either refactoring FRichCurve to be MVC like, or by calling UAnimDataController functionality from an implementation of FRichCurveEditorModel

* Mark FChange overrides as final for swap/command change permutations
* Changed FCompoundChange GetDescription to return concatenation of all sub-changes
* Added GetDescription to FTransaction which returns the ToString() value of any contained FChange entries.
    * Entries in SUndoHistory tab now have a ToolTip showing the GetDescription() value
+ FChangeTransactor helper object allows for keeping track of (compounded) FChange's and inserting them into GUndo

* Deprecation handling, conforming code to new APIs and exposing structure/objects/properties to scripting
* Conforming AnimSequence importing from FBX to Model/Controller changes
