- Splitting symbol generation and shader "debug info" generation into two different cvars. This should now allow us to generate symbols post-packaging without generating different shader variants. This should also enable us to always generate symbols and still have the final deduplicated shader sizes.
- r.Shaders.Symbols is now the primary way to enable shader symbols for debugging.
- r.Shaders.GenerateSymbols can be enabled to always generate symbols without writing them to disk.
- r.Shaders.WriteSymbols can be used to force write symbols if they were previously generated.
- r.Shaders.ExtraData can be used to generate shader names for engine runtime systems to use.
- NotifyShaderCooked replaced with NotifyShaderCompiled, prep for upcoming non-cook symbol writing.
- PC DXC shader compiles should only generate debug info when requested, not all the time.
- PC FXC shader compiles should generate debug info when requested, not just when r.Shaders.Optimize is 0.

Example usage in a shader:
PLATFORM_ASSERT4(GroupThread > 4321, 0xDF7DC903, GroupThread, GroupIndex, GroupBase, asuint(123.456f));

This works through automatic diagnostic buffer binding in D3D12 RHI, which becomes available in *any* shader as a UAV.
Opens the door for arbitrary human-readable message output from any shader in the future.
PLATFORM_ASSERT macro is always enabled and available on supported platforms. It is intended to be a low-level mechanism for a higher-level check() that would be controlled via CVars.

- Removed OutputMask since nothing was using it anymore.
- Made UAVMask an optional output from FXC compiles, only d3d11 reads it.
- UAVMask now created from entire set of UAVs and not just UAVs in Uniform Buffers.
