Interface IST_PropDefaultsEditor

Interface for accessing and modifying user-defined default values on property descriptors. Implemented by TSCPropDescriptor. Obtained via Supports/QueryInterface on IST_XMLPropDescriptor. UserDefaultValue and UserInchDefaultValue are stored in-memory only (fAttributes). The .usrdef files persist them across restarts.
