[Prefab] Errors are thrown when deleting the parent Prefab of a Variant Prefab
Reproduction steps:
1. Create a new project

- Opening the Look Dev hangs the Editor when the window is opened for the first time in the project or after deleting the Library folder
- Look Dev has blurry icons on 4k monitors
Resolution Note:
The error message is by design. It is improved error information that the Variant now has a problem since it is missing its parent Prefab.
