This method returns one or more invalid ImportResultIDs in the following curcumstances:
  1. An internal error occurs. This is accompanied by an error message in the Unity Log.
  2. The corresponding 
    artifactKey
    entry is an invalid Asset GUID, or 
    importerType
    is invalid.
  3. There is no cached result for the corresponding 
    artifactKey
    entry, and an async import operation is queued. Completion of an async request is checked by calling AssetDatabaseExperimental.LookupArtifact.
