Remarks

If the PrefabUnpackMode is the PrefabUnpackMode.OutermostRoot this function will return any new Prefab root GameObjects from any nested Prefabs at the first level.
Unlike PrefabUtility.UnpackPrefabInstance, this function can’t be made undoable. You will have to handle undo yourself.
See PrefabUtility.UnpackPrefabInstance for a full description of the unpacking behaviour.
