Newly installed versions of the engine will now attempt to copy the project-agnostic config settings from a previous engine installation. This happens by way of a versioned manifest that copies old versions when the manifest does not exist, or is a different version. This code path is benign for non-installed versions of the engine (or FPaths::ShouldSaveToUserDir() is false).
EditorGameAgnosticSettings and EditorUserSettings ini paths have been renamed to EditorSettings and EditorPerProjectUserSettings respectively to better convey their purpose. In general, most settings should be saved in EditorSettings (project-agnostic) so that they apply regardless of which project is open. We have some way to go migrating existing settings for this to be the case, however.
Some previously per-project configuration files are now project-agnostic (such as Editor.ini, EditorKeyBindings.ini, and EditorLayout.ini)
GEditor->Access...Settings and GEditor->Get...Settings have been removed in favor of direct access of the CDO through GetMutableDefault<> and GetDefault<> respectively. Global config ini filenames that are not set up are now neither loaded nor saved on build machines, to handle the problem of indeterminate state more generically.
This addresses UETOOL-270 (Most editor preferences should be project-agnostic)

I have reviewed each change carefully, but it is a large change and I could have missed something! Here is a summary of the types of changes in this CL:
* Made nullptr checks consistent (the plurality of the changes are of this type)
* Completed switch statements (IE, switch did not explicitly handle default case, but had unhandled enum entries - this is the second most popular type of fix)
* Removed unused variables
* Removed redundant initializations
* WidgetNavigationCustomization.cpp was fixed by the owner
* integers converted to floats where result was stored in a float
* Removed redundent null checks (e.g. before delete statements)
* Renamed variables to prevent non-obvious shadowing
* Fixed use of bitwise & when checking for equality to an enum entry (which is often 0)
* Fixes for some copy paste errors (e.g. FoliageEdMode.cpp)

*because of tons of changes, I will supply the changelists in the email because it was too large for this checkin*

Rob asked me to back out GENERATED_*_BODY -> GENERATED_BODY change for now until the "_Validate and _Implementation auto-generation" discussion is over.

Old functionality still works, but deprecated. Note that for the object type the object params have been moved to the same argument position as ByChannel and byProfile
