I actually tried this approach before and it didn't seem to work the way we needed, but I realized that's because PropertyAssetCtrl wasn't handling missing assets properly. I fixed a few issues there including showing the error button when the asset can't be found, and fixing a broken reference to the error icon file.

Replaced and removed the CryTimer (gEnv->pTimer). The new TimeSystem is a merger of the current time functionality found in the engine.
* Rename TimeSystemComponent.h/.cpp to TimeSystem.h/.cpp
* Adding New TimeSystem
* remove old timer cvars
* small improvements to the time system.
- updated parts to use the time conversion functions.
- in AdvanceTickDeltaTimes applying t_simulationTickScale is now uses doubles instead of floats.
* Replace gEnv->pTimer / ITimer usages with TimeSystem
* Updating usages of AZ::TimeMs{ 0 } and AZ::TimeUs{ 0 } to AZ::Time::ZeroTimeMs and AZ::Time::ZeroTimeUs
* red code the CryTimer
* using TimeUs instead of TimeMs is some cases + updating usages of old cvars to new

* The Build Time Stamp of ShaderAsset And
ShaderVariantAsset Should Be Based On
GetTimeUTCMilliSecond()
GetTimeNowMicroseconds() is useful to measure time stamp differences.
GetTimeUTCMilliSecond() is for time stamps based on absolute clock/wall time.
* Updated DiffuseGlobalIllumination precompiled shaders

* Updated the seedlist for the RPI to include the fallback images. It only needs the default and the missing asset images, since the AP doesn't run in release builds, the asset status will always be unknown, not processing or failed to process, so if an asset is not bundled, it is just missing.

The main reason for this is to give consistent results between the AP and Material Editor, where a placholder texture can be used if a texture is missing. Otherwise, you could get a placeholder texture in Material Editor and stale data in the runtime; this inconsistency would be confusing.
As a consequence, it is possible for example that the user could mess up the name of a property in a .material file and not notice the problem because it is now a warning instead of an error. If warnings-as-errors is desirable, you can enable the new "/O3DE/Atom/RPI/MaterialBuilder/WarningsAsErrors" registry setting.

Material Editor also warns the user when saving a material that is populated with fallback image references.
Factored out the path strings for the default images to ImateSystemInterface.h.

Made it a warning instead of an error when MaterialAssetCreator can't find a texture.
Updated the Material Editor's MaterialDocument class to not elevate warnings to errors.
Material Editor uses new features in TraceRecorder to show a message dialog when warnings are detected so the user is notified of the missing texture.
Next I will work on making MaterialAssetCreator put a "missing" texture in place of the requested one.

* Enable relocation of the Project Game Release Layout
Relocating the Project Game Release Layout to another directory on the file system failed due to the querying of the engine root failing due to the ComponentApplication::m_engineRoot not using the project path stored in the SettingsRegisry if the engine root cannot be detected
Removed the ApplicationRequestBus GetEngineRoot function.
The ComponentApplicationRequestBus has a function of the same name that returns the same path.
Removed the deprecated GetAppRoot function.
The path it returns has no defined value. It was not the engine root or the project root.
Removed unused CFileUtil and CFileUtil_impl functions that were invoking the ApplicationREquestBus GetEngineRoot function.
On the way to update the functions it was discovered that they aren't called
Added a CalculateBranchToken overload that can populate a fixed_string to avoid heap allocations

Fixed potential render scene time precision issues.
The timestamp was simply converted from GetTimeAtCurrentTick to a float. Since this value is backed by QueryPerformanceCounter which is 0 at boot, you could see broken animations on the GPU when your system has been on for a long time. So I simplified the RPI's time API (removed unused code), and subtracted the application start time each frame before converting the time value to a float.
Also moved FindShaderInputConstantIndex("m_time") to be called only once, instead of every frame.
Testing:
Originally: I had a local material shader that did vertex animation and it wasn't working at all before, and now it works.
More recently, I made local changes to StandardPBR to add a simple sin wave animation. I also modified GetTimeNowMicroSecond() to artificially add 30 days to the clock. This showed choppy animation before my changes, and smooth animation after.
AtomSampleViewer passed dx12 and vulkan (other than pre-existing issues)

Changed material document to load a source data are for the parent material as well. It was also a previously loading the parent material products asset which would be out of date compared to the source data.
Changed material document to track source file dependency changes instead of product asset changes.
Fixed a bug or copy paste error in the document manager that was using the same container to track documents the modified externally and from other dependency changes.

This RenderStates is used to override the values in the final draw packet, if the values are valid; it's supposed to be initialized to invalid values, but it wasn't. So the depth compare function was getting set to Less instead of GreaterEqual. This wasn't a problem when using serialized assets from disk, because the deserialization uses the default constructor which did initialize m_renderStatesOverlay. No all Item constructors initialize m_renderStatesOverlay.
