- Fix an issue where building a static mesh could change its own DDC key, causing duplicate render data to be cached and built.
- Fix an issue where static mesh DDC could have the Nanite resources stripped differently between Nanite and non-Nanite platforms that share cache.
Nanite builder fix (from Rune.Stubbe):
- Fixed rare builder crash when cluster group has to be split into more than 8 parts

* Stop using Nanite builder to generate the first reductions of fallback LOD, and instead only use Nanite to generate the first LOD, and perform the reductions with the mesh reduction module.
* Split out parts of the Nanite build portion of static mesh to prepare for upcoming changes (Nanite Assemblies) that will require building Nanite meshes with multiple inputs for the same static mesh.
* Re-introduce a Nanite DDC data fix since these changes require version bumps anyway.

- members of FStaticMeshRayTracingProxy can point to either ray tracing specific mesh data or reuse the rendering LODs (in this initial CL only rendering LODs are supported).

- only create FRayTracingGeometry objects if ray tracing is enabled on static mesh, project and platform.

- don't modify DDC key based on cvar since it doesn't impact LOD generation since CL 18820056.
- removed bGenerateCoarseMeshStreamingLODs parameter from a few functions since it isn't used anymore.
