- Fixed small game-specific plugins always using non-unity and getting a unique PCH
- You can now override the default behavior of UBT which compiles small game modules for "fast iteration"
- Many small game modules have a low frequency of iteration, and never need a unique PCH or non-unity enabled
- You can use the following module-specific variables to override the default behavior:
MinSourceFilesForUnityBuildOverride = 1;
MinFilesUsingPrecompiledHeaderOverride = BuildConfiguration.MinFilesUsingPrecompiledHeader;

Excluding the editor for a platform no longer excludes the Tools node, which includes tools used for non-editor targets

[CL 2647005 by Bob Tellez in Main branch]
* Moving Ionic.Zip source code into UE4 from UE4 source.
* Only one left should be in Binaries/DotNET.
* Moving TPS info to source location.
* Deleting several copies that were floating around.
Assembly Resolve Refactor
* Added AssemblyUtils.InstallAssemblyResolver to handle resolving of known assemblies that may not exist in the same folder as the referencing assembly.
* This is now installed by UAT and UBT, which should handle all needs to load Ionic.Zip and RPCUtility.exe from scripts that install into subfolders of Binaries/DotNET.
* Other assemblies can be added easily as necesary, centralizing the location where this is handled.
* Removed AssemblyResolver from RPCUtilHelper as UBT handles it automatically now.
* Removed Ionic.Zip references from projects that weren't really using it.

GUBP High Level
* Temp Storage is zipped into a single archive per node now. This results in ~75% reduction in temp storage usage and network traffic, not to mention the per-file overhead.
* Temp Storage is in P:\\Builds\\{Game}\\TmpStore instead of P:\\Builds\\{Game}\\GUBP (to facilitate easier cleaning of this new structure).
* Temp Storage nodes are in subdirectories of {Branch}\\{CL}\\{NodeName} now instead of a flat directory structure that was hard to manually sift through.
GUBP Mid Level
* Removed -Store= and -StoreSuffix= test parameters.
* Added -NoZipTempStorage parameter to turn off temp storage zipping if necessary.
* Created GUBP.JobInfo class that collects info about the job as a whole to be passed around by GUBP. Mostly used by any code that need to interact with TempStorage.
* Created TempStorageNodeInfo that describes the necessary parameters to find the temp storage location for a node.
* Fully XML commented TempStorage.cs, and commented internals all major functions.
* Added a bunch of telemetry data for storing, retrieving, and cleaning shared temp storage.
UAT Mid Level
* Fixed a bug in Ionic.Zip that make ExtractAll() not work on Mono, checked in new DLLs.
* Added UAT parameter -UseLocalBuildStorage that allows you to test build storage stuff completely locally. Writes to Engine\\Saved\\LocalBuilds\\...
GUBP Low Level
* Refactored some GUBP startup code so temp vars would be limited in scope. Makes it easier to track the impact of refactoring these things.
* CullNodesForPreflight is only called for preflight builds.
* Refactored TempStorage.FindTempStorageManifests to use new TmpStore structure and harden the brittle string/path parsing it was doing. See the new TempStorage FindMatchingSharedTempStorageNodeCLs().
* Refactored TempStorage Saving and Loading to use XDocument instead of older XmlDocument. Removed a bunch of redundant checks.
* Use StripBaseDirectory and MakeRerootedFilePath to remove the brittle directory manipulation code. Directories no longer require a '/' at the end.
* Removed a few redundant caching layers in cleaning temp storage that try to ensure we don't clean a folder twice. None of them were necessary.
* Removed unused single-threaded copy code from temp storage.
* Updated Temp Storage unit test, and fully commented the logic behind it.
UAT Low Level
* UAT top level exception handler is now a single log line now to help parsers find the error.
* Removed several uses of FormatException as it doesn't display the entire exception chain, and is not as good as the default exception formatter.
* Removed ExceptionToString as it used FormatException, which was not a good precedent.
* Fixed several cases of exception propagation that was not properly chaining the inner exception.
* Refactored ThreadedCopyFiles to use Parallel.For because it was just as fast (if not faster) and much simpler to maintain.
* Removed the suffix from Robust_FileExists_NoExceptions because it's sole purpose in life WAS to throw exceptions!
* Added a bunch of XML doc comments to CommandUtils.
* Modernized some container manipulation and iteration to use IEnumerable and extension methods more appropriately.
* Added several @todos for other minor cleanup stuff that should happen eventually.
* Fixed some uses of String.Compare to use invariant culture.

- Modular builds (editor, UT server) seem to be broken by this since FixDeps step probably is not listing its prerequisites correctly.
