Remarks

Implementation of UModelingObjectsCreationAPI suitable for use in UE Editor.

CreateMeshObject() currently creates a StaticMesh Asset/Actor
CreateTextureObject() currently creates a UTexture2D Asset

This is intended to be registered in the ToolsContext ContextObjectStore. Static utility functions Register() / Find() / ::Deregister() can be used to do this in a consistent way.

Several client-provided callbacks can be used to customize functionality (eg in Modeling Mode)

GetNewAssetPathNameCallback is called to determine an asset path. This can be used to do things like pop up an interactive path-selection dialog, use project-defined paths, etc
OnModelingMeshCreated is broadcast for each new created mesh object
OnModelingTextureCreated is broadcast for each new created texture object
