Improve usability of effect parameters #3059

Description

@VanCastar

The parameter page of effects is a bit unintuitive and clumsy to use and thus the process is prone to annoying mistakes.
Too many extra steps to just get parameter names visible and having to remember and type them correctly over in the scene editor needing to go back and forth just to check what the parameter designations were.

Suggestions to improve usability and lessening of error probabilities.

  1. Make effect parameter names a pull-down list of strings (when editing an action that changes an effect parameter)
  2. Display the parameter "real" name after the parameter "friendly" name : CenterX (Parameter: "centerX")
  3. Add a long description to effect parameters that will be displayed under the input field (this would match the UI pattern used for function parameters and behavior properties)
