While the mobile team wants to keep independent samples disbaled for PCD3D_ES3_1, it makes sense to move this as a platform dependent feature into the DDSPI configuration.

Support wave size 64 lumen compute inline RT dispatches and enable by default on Android.
Allow use of wave ops as long as they are supported in fragment and compute shaders (Vulkan). Vulkan implementation on Android typically don't support it in vertex and geometry stage.

OpenGL ES and Metal use framebuffer fetch.
Vulkan uses dual source blending.
For Vulkan and OpenGL ES there is a fallback shader permutation for drivers that don't support this. The fallback is the same as the existing solution that uses regular blending (i.e. looks different).
Others uses dual source blending and we force use of DXC for those shaders.

Platforms that do support uniform buffer objects can now provide batched primitive data through UBO. There is a limit UBO range that can be accessed in shaders, so we group instances into batches that fit into this limit. Switch uses 64KB views, other platfroms16KB views. For each primitive we allocate 512Bytes and 256Bytes for instance. Mobile platforms that do not support UBO will use a desktop version of GPUScene.
There are a few things that still missing: Dynamic mesh passes, static lighting

r.ShaderPipelines
r.Material.ExcludeNonPipelinedShaders
Both cvars are currently disable on WindowsEngine.ini which make them also disable when we cook for consoles. ExcludeNonPipelinedShaderTypes is currently used only at cooking time when we compile shaders which is currently returning false, since the value is disabled on windows. Making those cvars use FShaderPlatformCachedIniValue, will allow to have specific platform value when cooking for a specific target. Moving r.Material.ExcludeNonPipelinedShaders to the defaultengine.ini file to keep it disable for the moment and not affecting shader key string. Will enable it progressively on console later.
r.Shaders.RemoveUnusedInterpolators
Make that cvar platform agnostic, since it will be used in on other consoles eventually. Platforms supporting the stripping of unused interpolators will check the same flag (CFLAG_ForceRemoveUnusedInterpolators) to enable it. Since windows can run opengl, and stripping is not supported on that shader platform, add extra logic to exclude the flag.
-Make the RHISupportsShaderPipelines function access a real DDPI attribute and not just test if we are not on mobile. Will need this to be able to have stripping unused shader interpolators on Switch.

UAT RunClient: Continuously redirect output to uat stdout while client is running.
UAT RunClient: Add a process wrapper to kill client process when uat exits and to write the adb device log file to the host pc directories.
UAT RunClient: Push the ClientCmdLine args as a UECommandLine.txt file to the device to the correct location (different for adb deploy and android file server) to override the stage/apk command line.
UAT MakeApk: Add a UECommandLine.txt cache file to the intermediate directory to invalidate the apk when the stage/apk command line changes (e.g. when switching between CBTB or COTF or cooking with/without Zen).
LaunchAndroid.cpp: Add debug output for which override command line file that is being used.
LaunchAndroid.cpp: Implement missing -waitforattach/-waitfordebugger feature.
DataDrivenPlatformInfo.ini: set bUATClosesAfterLaunch=false to stop the editor from passing -nokill to uat to let it stop all processes when the client exits..
