1) Fix Visual Studio Profiling PerfAPI build script pathing for modern era of Visual Studio, add IDEDir to UBT for base path of PerfAPI lib/headers
2) Add initial support for Superluminal instrumentation API, if it's installed and -Superluminal is passed on the command line. Dial back color saturation a bit to go easier on the eyes (my eyes!!). This is WIP support, we are technically violating the API rules by feeding in changing strings to the same profile marker. So, with this change you can see the instrumentation markers in the timeline, but using all the event features in Superluminal causes weird artifacts like event strings changing as you use profiler features. Subsequent change will attempt to pry apart static and instance string data in the instrumentation, as this is a common trope across profilers (and non-PC platforms).
Updated FExternalProfiler API to forward along color information from the instrumentation. This is a minor breaking change as it's very unlikely there are direct callers of these APIs.

* Rename CpuProfilerChannel to CpuChannel.
* Removed NamedEventsChannel and use CpuChannel.

- Ptrdiff -> int32
- Float/int confusion and double/float
- size_t stuff; various changes to the algorithms to use a deduced IndexType template argument and/or decltype to use the appropriate size for indicies and counts
- Fixed GetNum(FString) incorrectly returning SIZE_T instead of int32, and GetNum(container) now returns whatever container.Num() does (so usually int32)

Nested CpuProfiler scopes were ended too early in certain nested scenarios. This was solved by introducing a channel gate to OutputEndEvent. This means in order to see the cpu scopes from for example RHICommands channel, users also need to enable CpuProfilerChannel. Also removed bThreadEnabled which wasn't needed.

Systems that use TraceLog now uses channels to control if events are emitted. Also introduce a new command line argument "-trace" which allows users to specify a comma separated list of channel names to enable.

Copy the metadata at the endCapture since the FinalizeCsvFile can happen a few frames later. We need to ensure that the metadata correspond to what happening BeginCapture/Endcapture. We enqueue the metadata, the same way we enqueue the start/stop command, so the will always match.
