Allow profiler to be used in an editor context

[ryevdokimov]

Describe the project you are working on

Simulation software that is entirely ran in the editor

Describe the problem or limitation you are having in your project

Not being able to profile the editor itself

Describe the feature / enhancement and how it helps to overcome the problem or limitation

Allow profiling the editor, to diagnose issues with tool scripts, editor plugins, engine modifications, etc.

Describe how your proposal will work, with code, pseudo-code, mock-ups, and/or diagrams

The same way as the current profiler, but using the editor itself as the context

If this enhancement will not be used often, can it be worked around with a few lines of script?

Not a few.

Is there a reason why this should be core and not an add-on in the asset library?

It would be useful to anyone developing more complex addons.
