Steps to Reproduce
  1. Open a material with many nodes in the editor
  2. Add a MaterialFunctionCall node to the Graph
  3. Drag and connect the UnspecifiedFunction's pin to any pin on Material Result Node
    Result: Editor Crashes

Note: The function call node has a single output pin by default which is incorrect which is why linking it causes the crash.
