Improved UX For Device Tree and CVar Conditions
- Clean up Niagara Device Tree
- new bIsVisibleForAsssets value in device profiles to have them indicate which device profiles should be visible in other assets.
- Improved tooltips and colouring on device tree to better show what is enabled/disabled and why.
- Added tooltips for CVar conditions to text entry and suggestion boxes showing the CVar help text.
PlatformSet Redirect feature =
- Can redirect usage of device profiles to other device profiles or CVar conditions.
- Allows fixup of content referncing legacy device profiles.
- Adding CVar fx.Niagara.LegacyDeviceProfiles to facilitate some legacy DP fixup.
Platforms now specifiy a min & max Niagara Quality Level they support which reduces need for trawling ini files and allows fragments to set quality level.
CVar Conditions now have more control over what occurs when the condition is passed or failed. Previously they could only disable the set when the condition is failed which is now the default.
Misc Fixes
- Preview DP is cleared before restoring CVar states so CVar callbacks have the correct preview DP value.
- Data Driven CVars are now updated correctly when default is modified in project settings.
- Console Manager now has a callback when CVars are unregistered.
- Utility function for calling a functor on all platform sets in a Niagara system.
- Tweaked callbacks for CVar changes so updates are defered and also limited to only refresh things that references changed CVars.

We can't share DDPI infrastructure with PC D3D ES3.1 because of conflicts from sharing. We need a separate shader platform.
For now, we'll just 'intrusively' plumb the new Hololens shader platform. In the future, we want to move as much code out into
Hololens-specific platform code to reduce conflict with shared paths that don't need to know about Hololens.

was disabled temporarily when Oodle didn't have a HoloLens build, forgot to remove the temporary setting when that was fixed

- MediaModule now uses the platform Guid from DDPI instead of having a per-platform MediaInfo module that only supplied a Guid. Deleted many platform extension modules

- Formalizing all TargetPlatforms to have a Client version, rename WindowsNoEditor to Windows, and removing DDPI specification of TargetPlatforms, and generate them programmatically
- Updated names DeviceProfiles and Build scripts, as above
- Some PlatformInfo class cleanup
- Added a TNonDesktopTargetPlatformBase class to make most TargetPlatforms simpler
- Added "No Compiled Support" to the Turnkey LaunchOn menu when the TargetPlatforms aren't compiled in (to show that even if you install an SDK, you will need to compile before you can LaunchOn)\
- Starting the transition away from PlatformInfo::FPlatformInfo to FDDPI
[CL 13966487 by Josh Adams in ue5-main branch]
- Renamed FDataDrivenPlatformRegistry::FPlatformInfo to FDataDrivenPlatformInfo
- Moved some fields from PlatformInfo::FTargetPlatformInfo to FDataDrivenPlatformInfo, and cleaned them up in the process
- Fixed the DataDrivePlatformInfo.ini files to match the previous items
- Removed FVanillaPlatformEntry, and now just using FTargetPlatformInfo to manage flavors under a vanilla PlatformInfo (see PlatformInfo::GetVanillaPlatformInfoArray())
- Cleaned up TPerPlatformValue, as it was often misused (took a group and platform name, but we can get the group from the platform name) [AnimationSharingManager.cpp, *Engine.cpp, Runtime\Engine\*, ]
- Fixed FBlueprintNativeCodeGenPaths::GetDefaultCodeGenPaths() to use IniPlatformName instead of some hacky code [BlueprintNativeCodeGenManifest.cpp]
- Fixed various Turnkey bugs that recent testing exposed
- Enabled AUTOSDKS_ENABLED in both Mac and Linux on the Editor side (not that there are much set up to use it)
- Using Turnkey to get the SDK status instead of ValidatePlatforms (gives more detailed information - may want to go back to ValidatePlatforms so only UBT is needed, but change it to give more info)
- Moved OnDeviceDiscovered and Lost delegates from each platform's TargetPlatform class to a static in ITargetPlatform - there was no need for per-platform implementations
- Started working on allowing for SDK to be installed with editor running and not need to restart editor - Work in Progress! It is not usable yet.
