Describe the bug
When removing a variable defined in C++ and then recompiling, the Sk IDE will still show that variable until a restart.

To Reproduce

1. Remove a C++ UPROPERTY'd variable from a class.
2. Compile and launch the project
3. Look in Sk IDE and notice variable is still there
4. Restart Sk IDE and notice variable is now gone

Expected behavior
IDE gets updated without requiring a restart.

[error454]

I was running this through the debugger but could not reproduce the issue. I made a ZachTest class with 4 UPROPERTY variables. I compiled the project, verified that I could see all 4 variables in
the IDE and then removed 1 variable and recompiled. The change was correctly reflected in the IDE.

The area of interest in the IDE code is the function
SSkMemberList::refresh_content and then the subequent call to add_new_or_keep_old for SkTypedNameRaw. I don't see any logic issues in the code and now am suspicious that perhaps UHT did not run when I experienced the issue.

Going to leave this bug open until I can confirm the situation.
