xiiHybridArray<xiiString, 1> xiiDocumentTypeDescriptor::m_CompatibleTypes

This list is used to decide which asset types can be picked from the asset browser for a property. The strings are arbitrary and don't need to be registered anywhere else. An asset may be compatible for multiple scenarios, e.g. a skinned mesh may also be used as a static mesh, but not the other way round. In such a case the skinned mesh is set to be compatible to both "CompatibleAsset_Mesh_Static" and "CompatibleAsset_Mesh_Skinned", but the non-skinned mesh only to "CompatibleAsset_Mesh_Static". A component then only needs to specify that it takes an "CompatibleAsset_Mesh_Static" as input, and all asset types that are compatible to that will be browseable.
