- .app is now fully made by Xcode, not partially by UBT/UAT (exe is copied into .app via shell script, and "cookeddata" is a folder reference in the Xcode proejct - for IOS/TVOS only for now)
- Updated how metadata files are found in the Metadata class, and template plist files are now called Info.Template.plst
- A prebuild script does some prep work to help with Xcode and UBT interaction, and the way our legacy build locations mess with Build after Archive
- Fixed some ".app" issues where the PRODUCT_NAME was missing

- Enabled for Xcode, added support but left disabled for VisualStudio
- For Games and Samples with multiple projects, a solution folder now contains them

- Mac/MacEditor can also have template/premade plist files
- Legacy xcode mode will still write the entire plist file

- Creates the UnrealArchitectures class, which wraps a list of UnrealArch objects
- UnrealArch is a single architecture, expandable enum-like struct
- There is no more concept of "no/default architecture", there is always a valid active architecture when building
- Most uses of "string Architecture" are replaced with one of the two above, depending if multiple architectures are supported or not
- UnrealArch has some platform-extensions for platform-specific naming (like Linux adds in LinuxName that turns, for instance, Arm64 -> aarch64-unknown-linux-gnueabi, which is used in folder names, etc)
- UnrealArch has bIsX64 which can be used determine intel instruction set (as opposed to arm)
- TargetRules class has an "Architecture" accessor that will return a single architecture if the active architectures is a single architecture, or throw an exception if multiple. This is useful in a majority of the cases where a paltform can only have a single architecture active in TargetRules (microsoft platforms, for instance, will create separate targets when compiling multiple architectures at once)
- Added UnrealArchitectureConfig class, which contains all the architecture information for a platform (what architectures are supported, what ones are currently active for given project, etc)

- If there are no modern projects, then the mode is ignored, and it's the same old mode. With a mix of modern and legacy, each platform workspace will point to the same legacy projects (not worth retooling Legacy since it's becoming deprecated)
- Added Launch Storyboard support (it will look for uncompiled, compiled, project, and engine fallback locations). Compiled is useful or old storyboards, and for Windows-based (assuming that will work with Modern)
- Other minor things like metadata discovery, etc

- Fixed executable path for programs under Restricted
- Fixed paths when there's an ExeSubDir in the Target
- Allow for codesigning frameworks under programs without a .uproject

- Added UAT params to pass architecture by target type (-editorarchitecture, -clientarchitecture, -serverarchitecture, -programarchitecture). Keeping -specifiedarchitecture for compat, and it will set all the other 4 if they are not specified
- Changed ProjectGenerator to find Program .uproject files (logic was looking for .Target files under the .uproject's directory, which is not the case for Programs)
- Added two params to GetProjectArchitectures:
- bGetAllSupported - used to get all supported architectures, not just the ones currently being built for (needed for XcodeProject to know what architectures to allow in the dropdown)
- bIsDistributionMode - used to get architectures to compile when making distribution builds (probably want to compile all architectures for distro's)
- Removed the MacExports.TargetsAlowedForAppleSilicon, updated XcodeProject code to use the new GetProjectArchitectures()

This QFE addresses multiple issues with Mac builds in UE 5.1:
* Removed Apple Silicon from default build architectures if installed from Epic Games Launcher, as it is not yet supported in UE 5.1 as a default option.
* Apple Silicon native build will be available in UE 5.1 through Epic Games Launcher at a later time, but for now please build from GitHub (URL for linking here - https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/tree/5.1)
* Fixed a Mobile Preview crash on Mac when Mobile Deferred is enabled and Preview Rendering Level set to iOS Shader 3.1
* Fixed issue that was preventing movable lights from properly casting light on Mac

- Premade "template" plist files for Mac, MacEditor, IOS, and added a PlistMode to choose between updating a template plist (from engine) or using a "baked" out plist that Xcode won't really mess with (this is still a work in progress, as it still needs thought on how to handle IOS premade vs Mac template, etc)
- Updating icons to using xcassets instead of .icns file
- Added post build step for UBT to write out build versions (increments each build) to a .xcconfig for Xcode to put into the .plist, but it reads previous value. Not terrible, but it still needs work

* Remove the "Mac short circuit" blocks of code in the project generator as it was skipping the code that sets up PLIST and BUNDLE_IDENT settings (which Xcode14 will need)
* Point Xcode at the temp plist files that project generator makes
* Make sure to copy the final plist on top of the temp plist file so Xcode will pull that one into the .app at the end
