UnrealBuild -> Unreal for EngineDirectory, RootDirectory, IsEngineInstalled, UnrealBuildToolPath
Remove CommandUtils EngineDirectory, RootDirectory, IsEngineInstalled - use equvalents from UnrealBuildBase.Unreal

RootDirectory, EngineDirectory, UnrealBuildToolPath are now found in BuildUtilities' UnrealBuild namesapce.
The way these are computed has changed. Previously, it was assumed that the application is UnrealBuildTool, and paths were constructed relative to that assembly.
Now, the assumption is that the process is located under a "Engine/Build/DotNET" sub-path and paths are constructed relative to that.

AGXRHI is starting out as a clone of MetalRHI, but will be refactored and overhauled with several goals in mind:
- Reduce/Eliminate technical debt
- Substantially improve readability and maintainability
- Introduce clear layers for platform independent vs dependent code
- Reduce memory footprint and generally improve memory usage
- Remove legacy concepts (like manual reference counting) and enable better integration with platform tools
- Implement newer and more modern features provided by Metal (such as ray tracing and enhanced command buffer debugging)
- Target/tune the software architecture and API usage for performance on Apple designed GPUs

- Changed RunLocal* functions in UnrealBuildTools.Utils to use UTF-8 stdout
- IOS device detection (TVOS needs some testing still)

Mostly a find/replace, though I have looked through the changes and attempted to update references to other things as necessary (eg. renaming IOS plist files for IOS). I'm not set up to test on any platforms other than windows, and was hoping to get your blessing to submit and give QA enough time as possible to uncover issues before the next milestone release.
Particular things that I know I'm not sure about:
- Android references /UE4Game/ paths everywhere (for paths on device, I think). I have no idea if I've got them all.
- I've renamed the iOS mobileprovisions, but I don't know if they need regenerating for the new app name.
- Likewise, not sure what needs to be updated for icon bundles on iOS.
Things that have not been changed:
- Windows still uses IDI_UE4ICON for its icon
- UE4CommandLine.txt
- There's still a UE4Game module which is used by content-only projects
