Also rework logic for determining whether a project needs to be compiled, to more closely match equivalent code in UAT. ITargetPlatform::NeedsTempTarget() now allows querying whether a project needs a temporary target to be generated.

New Project dialog no longer displays the Languages Available field in the preview window if the selected category contains no templates.
Added warning for cases when a template is referring to a category that doesn't exist.

Any build targets have a DefaultBuildSettings property. For engine targets, this defaults to BuildSettingsVersion.Latest. For project targets, this defaults to BuildSettingsVersion.Release_4_23. For new projects, this will default to the engine version they are created from.
If a target is not using the latest default build settings, they will receive a message describing the settings that have changed, like this:
[Upgrade]
[Upgrade] Using UE 4.23 compatible build settings. The latest version of UE4 sets the following values by default, which may require code changes:
[Upgrade] bLegacyPublicIncludePaths = false => Omits subfolders from public include paths to reduce compiler command line length.
[Upgrade] PCHUsage = PCHUsageMode.UseExplicitOrSharedPCHs => Set in build.cs files to enables IWYU-style PCH model. See https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/Programming/BuildTools/UnrealBuildTool/IWYU/index.html.
[Upgrade] Suppress this message by setting 'DefaultBuildSettings = BuildSettingsVersion.Release_4_24;' in UnrealPak.Target.cs, and explicitly overriding desired settings.
[Upgrade]
Intent is to reduce friction for users initially upgrading to new engine versions, while notifying them of more optimal build settings being available, and letting them choose when (or if) to use them.

Fixed category description being slightly clipped when wrapping.
Fixed a gap that was created when no major categories existed due to the TileView still reserving one row of space for itself.

Template categories can be configured from TemplateCategories.ini in the Templates/ folder. Templates can now also exist in multiple categories.

* Removed code to invalidate makefiles when adding new source files. UBT should be reliable enough to make this determination itself nowadays, and ignored -invalidatemakefilesonly argument was causing modules to be recompiled.
* Fixed incorrect config section name when determining whether to allow hot reload from IDE. Now prevents hot reload from IDE when live coding is enabled.
* Added error message when trying to add a new class with Live Coding enabled.
* Added error messages when trying to start Live Coding after a hot reload has taken place.
* Added error messages when trying to hot reload with Live Coding enabled.
