- Minor fixes, Linux-specific additions (like preferred source code accessor setting or building ForsythTriOO) and tweaks (log level, etc).

Plugin reference in the .uproject file has a "Description" field which allows setting a customizable message if the plugin is not available. Allows distribution of samples which require a plugin, but without including the plugin itself.

There is now a consistent set of methods for module loading, unloading and lookup that all behave in the same expected way.
- renamed GetModuleInterface to GetModule and made it not assert
- removed GetModuleInterfaceRef
- namespace enums to enum classes, NULL to nullptr
- moved important public methods to the top, so they're easier to discover
- added missing & improved existing documentation
- cleaned up existing use cases

Please note that file comments had no purpose in nearly all cases and just added visual clutter. The two files that had meaningful file comments had their comments moved into the corresponding classes. There are still hundreds of file comments left in other files that will be removed over time.
Also cleaned up some random stuff along the way:
- relative paths to public headers within the same module are no longer necessary (automatically discovered by UBT now)
- header guards are deprecated, use #pragma once instead (all compilers support it now)
- space between multiple template brackets is no longer required (all compilers support >> now)
- NULL to nullptr, OVERRIDE to override
- spelling errors, whitespace, line breaks

TTP# 337136 - SETTINGS: Target Platform settings polish
TTP# 337652 - EDITOR: Limit Project supported Android icons down to 1
TTP# 337650 - EDITOR: There is only 1 icon for Apple for Project Supported Platforms
DesktopPlatform now contains a static array of FPlatformInfo. This can be used to query UE4 about its available platforms, even when they're not available as a target platform.
FPlatformInfo contains the information required by the editor (such as a localized display name and icon), as well as whether a platform is a variation ("flavor") of another, and if so, whether the flavor affects the build output (eg, Win32 or Win64), or the cook output (eg, Android_XYZ). This lets the editor build up nested menus for the "Package Project" and "Cook Project" options, rather than just showing everything as a flat list.

TTP# 332489 - TOOLS FEATURE: Editor: Allow user to designate which platforms a project is designed for; warn user when deploying to platforms that will result in a bad time
There is now a "Target Platforms" tab in the project settings which allows you to choose which platforms your project will target. This information is stored inside the .uproject file.
If you try and launch, cook, or package for a project that isn't on the supported list, then you'll see a suppressible warning notifying you that the project may not run as expected. This is also conveyed to you via a warning icon next to platforms which aren't set as a target.
Additionally the target platform icons are shown in the tooltip on the "Open Project" dialog, as well as in the tab area of the level editor.

This is to highlight that they will need to be upgraded before they can be used in the current version of the engine. Currently there is no upgrade step, but this will be implemented shortly. This addresses some of TTP #333190 (Project Browser: Improved workflow for opening projects from earlier versions of the editor)
