Asset Serialization Mode Force Text saves NavMesh in binary

Serialization

-

To reproduce:

1. Open the project, attached by the tester (forceTextBug.zip)
2. Bake the NavMesh
3. Find the baked NavMesh in the Assets folder
4. Open it with any text editor
5. (Optional) Check Asset Serialization Mode in Edit -> Project Settings -> Editor

Expected: NavMesh asset is saved as a text file if Asset Serialization Mode is set to Force Text

Reproduced in 5.6.0a6, 5.6.1f1, 5.6.2f1, 2017.1.0f1, 2017.2.0b1
Did not reproduce in 5.5.2f1, 5.6.0a5
Regression introduced in 5.6.0a6

By design: The NavMesh data is now forced to be serialized in binary format - this means it overrides the editor settings (if set to text).

    Great, where was the notification about this. Just spent a couple of hours chasing down why our NavMesh data was invalid or corrupt ... Since Perforce had these at text as that is what we asked for and was working... Changing to Binary fixes the issue... but really Unity, how to lose the ball on this one... Great JOB!!!! :(
