Editor GUI Labels change with creation of GUIContent in AssetImporterEditor
How to reproduce:
1. Download and open project 'GUICorruption.zip'
2. Select Asset 'Assets/SelectThisAndRecompile.asset'
3. Enter Play Mode
4. Observe Editor
Expected result: No changes in the Editor
Actual result: Most of Editor UI Labels are changed
Reproducible with: 2019.4.16f1, 2020.1.16f1, 2020.2.0b14, 2021.1.0a9
Couldn't test with: 2018.4.28f1 (No Namespace AssetImporters)
Notes: In CustomLevelImporterEditor.cs not initializing testlabel (changing "private GUIContent testlabel = GUIContent.none" -> "private GUIContent testlabel") and setting it's value later doesn't produce the issue

- Out-of-bounds memory access with multiple CanvasRenderers under a Canvas when using Mesh API
- Inspector tries to access file after it was deleted when the file was locked in Inspector window
- Changing Transform values in Search window Inspector loses focus while dragging and stopping mouse without releasing dragging action
- Saving changes on the dirty VFX Graph during the Play mode throws "The referenced script (Unknown) on this Behaviour is missing!" warnings
- VFX Graph Debug Info overlaps the "Initialize" block debug info by default
Resolution Note:
The issue is due to assigning the reference pointer of none to the users variable and when assigning the new it overwrites the pointer. Because GUIContent is a reference type (class) it will be assigned based on a reference, not sure we can break that pattern.
