This resolves a issue with PCBs were pdbcopy failed to run because it does not support portable pdbs.

Some behavior changes:
Output paths - Both tools are now output to a subdirectory of Binaries/Dotnet, I believe most hardcoded paths have been fixed up but there may be tools that will fail because of this.
UAT Plugin Building - As .NET Core does not support AppDomain unloading, how we build the plugins has changed quite a bit, these are now built before UAT is started rather then by UAT itself. If you just start UAT via RunUAT.bat/sh this should just continue to work.

Also cleaned up some output assemblies, preventing all transative references from being outputed (as we assume they build directly to the output directory instead). Unfortunatley the UBT references still cause tranastive dependencies to be copied as this is also a executable that needs to work outside of UAT as well, we should eventually move all UBT referenced code into BuildUtilities.

Also reduces footprint on disk and speedsup builds slightly.
Also took a pass over all projects to fixup their output paths as there were some inconsitencies from my port to netcore.
Lastly I disabled the resource folders for everything but english to reduce some of the noise in the output folder, this just impacts which languages you get code analysis.

Mostly a find/replace, though I have looked through the changes and attempted to update references to other things as necessary (eg. renaming IOS plist files for IOS). I'm not set up to test on any platforms other than windows, and was hoping to get your blessing to submit and give QA enough time as possible to uncover issues before the next milestone release.
Particular things that I know I'm not sure about:
- Android references /UE4Game/ paths everywhere (for paths on device, I think). I have no idea if I've got them all.
- I've renamed the iOS mobileprovisions, but I don't know if they need regenerating for the new app name.
- Likewise, not sure what needs to be updated for icon bundles on iOS.
Things that have not been changed:
- Windows still uses IDI_UE4ICON for its icon
- UE4CommandLine.txt
- There's still a UE4Game module which is used by content-only projects
