Deleting a material layer from a stack, re-linking the layers, then deleting that layer again crashes the editor

Deleting a material layer from a stack, re-linking the layers, then deleting that layer again crashes the editor

Description

The important step here is to unlink the middle layer after first relinking everything.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Create three material layers with a variety of parameters (color, roughness, metallic)
  2. Create a couple of material layer blends, with a variety of parameters (direction, intensity, etc.)
  3. Create a simple layered material, and create an instance of that. Add your layers and blends.
  4. In the Layer parameters view, expand the blend and layer parameters and make modifications.
  5. Delete the middle layer.
  6. Relink the layers.
  7. Unlink the middle layer.
  8. Delete the middle layer again.
  9. Observe the crash.

Alternately, see attached project for repro. Open M_MyLayeredMaterial_inst and delete "Layer 1", then relink the layers, unlink Layer 1, then delete Layer 1 again to observe the crash.
