Change 3209340 on 2016/11/23 by Ben.Marsh
Convert UE4 codebase to an "include what you use" model - where every header just includes the dependencies it needs, rather than every source file including large monolithic headers like Engine.h and UnrealEd.h.
Measured full rebuild times around 2x faster using XGE on Windows, and improvements of 25% or more for incremental builds and full rebuilds on most other platforms.
* Every header now includes everything it needs to compile.
* There's a CoreMinimal.h header that gets you a set of ubiquitous types from Core (eg. FString, FName, TArray, FVector, etc...). Most headers now include this first.
* There's a CoreTypes.h header that sets up primitive UE4 types and build macros (int32, PLATFORM_WIN64, etc...). All headers in Core include this first, as does CoreMinimal.h.
* Every .cpp file includes its matching .h file first.
* This helps validate that each header is including everything it needs to compile.
* No engine code includes a monolithic header such as Engine.h or UnrealEd.h any more.
* You will get a warning if you try to include one of these from the engine. They still exist for compatibility with game projects and do not produce warnings when included there.
* There have only been minor changes to our internal games down to accommodate these changes. The intent is for this to be as seamless as possible.
* No engine code explicitly includes a precompiled header any more.
* We still use PCHs, but they're force-included on the compiler command line by UnrealBuildTool instead. This lets us tune what they contain without breaking any existing include dependencies.
* PCHs are generated by a tool to get a statistical amount of coverage for the source files using it, and I've seeded the new shared PCHs to contain any header included by > 15% of source files.
Tool used to generate this transform is at Engine\Source\Programs\IncludeTool.

FText DisplayString shared ptrs are persisted across property edits. This preserves their entry in the live table and also updates the string that the entry points to. We call GetString() to update the hashed value as persisting the DisplayString means that its location in the table is preserved.
On serialization, a valid key is still found in the live table for the display string, so the key is preserved.
Added funtionality to the property editor to allow key editing and re-generation so any key conflicts can be resolved in the future.
Added new flag to prevent us from being able to edit 'immutable' code-declared (LOCTEXT) text. We dont attempt to preseve the identity of properties that are initialized with these.
UE-5350 - As a translator, I would like the editor tutorial text to preserve it's history between changes in order to greatly improve the translation workflow.

Expanded tagging system to more general metadata. Supplied a base class with simple RTTI as well as a simple tagging metadata that will be used in place of the FName tag. Once all tags are converted the Tag field will be deprecated.

Tutorials can now be created using the right-click asset menu->Misc->Tutorial Blueprint.
Importer allows you to pick a UDN file, which will then be converted into a new Tutorial Asset.
Adapted UDN parser to also output rich text format for the purposes of this importer. This may be deprecated at some point soon, once existing tutorials have been imported.
Rich text editor added to tutorial details customization. Features; font, color, size & hyperlinks for now.
Rich text display also added to content widgets.
Added option to optionally show the widget highlight if only the bubble widget is required.

Added Tags to more multibox widgets, so virtually all can now be picked.
Added SWindow::HasOverlay so we dont attempt to add overlays to widows that cannot have them.
