Renamed UE4.natvis to Unreal.natvis
Fixed up Project File Generator within the Unreal Build Tool

* Added support for more complex Msbuild conditions (using static property methods) as we use this to do per platform checks in the csprojs.
* Tweaks to the parsing of csprojs as expecations are different for netcore (mostly for how configurations are defined)
* Lastly if -dotnetcore flag is present when generating projects, use the netcore project files instead.

* Improved detection of UE solution by using a special section outputted to the solution, this replaces the need to add a special comment into the solution (or relying on naming convention as was the fallback). This still works with the old conventions to support being used in a UE4 solution.
* Inverted Quickbuild menu to dynamically populate the platforms instead - this allows UnrealVS to data drive the platform list. Unfortunatley due to how visual studio UI handles dynamic lists we can not have a menu that is dynamic and has children. Thus configurations are now hard coded instead - these are still only visible when they are actually supported, but it means UnrealVS needs to be updated when new configurations are added.
* Fixed issue setting debug arguments to net core projects (due to the change to launchSettings.json to store the debug arguments)

To disable the use of shared include paths (at the expensive of Visual Studio using more memory), put this in BuildConfiguration.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Configuration xmlns="https://www.unrealengine.com/BuildConfiguration">
<VCProjectFileGenerator>
<MaxSharedIncludePaths>0</MaxSharedIncludePaths>
</VCProjectFileGenerator>
</Configuration>
The setting specifies the maximum length of the shared include paths to use, in bytes. The default value is 24,576 (24k).

Visual Studio solution files and project files are now generated deterministically by UnrealBuildTool to reduce solution and project reloads.
Three sources of non-determinism are addressed by this change:
1. VisualStudioSolutionFolder now uses a deterministic guid based on its folder path in the solution. Note that this relies on MasterProjectFolder.AddSubFolder avoiding sibling folders with duplicate names.
2. The Visualizers folder now uses a hard-coded Guid.
3. RulesCompiler.FindAllRulesFiles now sorts cached paths.

Also fixed so that HololensTarget is actually getting configured from setting sources, including command line and BuildConfiguration.xml which I added attributes for to match how Windows targets can be configured.
