* Will prevent AWS buildmachines from holding an exclusive lock on actor files in case of a crash & if the Horde process doesn't cleanup checked out file properly (often the case)
* All p4 operations were temporary during those two steps those anyway
* Much faster setup step
The last step, -SubmitHLODs will obviously require source control to be enabled

Recursively bundle pre-compiled AutomationTool binaries, based on the method used in InstalledEngineBuild.xml
(AutomationTool is pre-built before the script is run - there is no need to build it again)

[CL 16119044 by jonathan adamczewski in ue5-main branch]
Added options for Linux to BuildAndTest and UE5 Horde templates for ShooterGame/QAGame for completeness.

Cleaned up some options around paths to make it easier for scripts to customize them.
Fixed issue with GDKBuilds in Gauntlet where the build source was ignoring the specified recursion depth when searching

* Added options to generate/use a build manifest
* -BuildManifest=Filename.ini
* When calling with -SetupHLODs, provide "-BuildManifest=Filename.ini -BuilderCount=N" to have N workloads in the build manifest
* When calling with -BuildHLODs, provide "-BuildManifest=Filename.ini -BuilderIdx=i" to build workload i
Added UWorldPartitionBuilder::PreWorldInitialization()
Added support for distributed World Partition HLOD generation
* Runs multiple steps on different machines
* Setup: Done on a single machine, will create/update/delete HLOD actors as required. The distributed setup step takes a "BuilderCount" argument, which will be used to write a build manifest that specify the work that needs to be done by the N builders
* Build: Performed on multiple machines, read work to be done from the build manifest
* Submit: Final step, perform on a single machine. Gather files modified in all the previous steps and submit them in a single changelist
Intermediary files that are created/modified/deleted are transfered between the jobs as build products, and submitted in the last step.
To run with UAT:
RunUAT.bat BuildGraph -Script=Engine\Build\Graph\Examples\BuildWorldPartitionHLODs.xml -Target="HLOD Generation" -set:ProjectName=YourProjectName -set:EditorTarget=EditorTargetName -set:MapName=YourMapName -set:BuilderCount=N
To run steps individually:
* Setup (N = Builder count to use)
YourProject YourMapName -run=WorldPartitionBuilderCommandlet -SCCProvider=Perforce -AllowCommandletRendering -Builder=WorldPartitionHLODsBuilder -SetupHLODs -DistributedBuild -BuilderCount=N
* Build (i from 0 to N-1):
YourProject YourMapName -run=WorldPartitionBuilderCommandlet -SCCProvider=Perforce -AllowCommandletRendering -Builder=WorldPartitionHLODsBuilder -DistributedBuild -BuildHLODs -BuilderIdx=i
* Submit:
YourProject YourMapName -run=WorldPartitionBuilderCommandlet -SCCProvider=Perforce -AllowCommandletRendering -Builder=WorldPartitionHLODsBuilder -DistributedBuild -SubmitHLODs
