Detailed Description

Extension methods for UnityEditor.SerializedProperty using VariableInfo.

Work with System.Reflection to access values. Basically okay for user defined fields, and script properties aren't serializable. Depend on SerializedProperty.propertyPath with exactly the same name to find reflection. But might error with built-in types. E.g., UnityEngine.Bounds has path "m_Extent" but field "m_Extents" and property "extents".
