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.

Added a NET_CORE define to allow us to have changes side by side.
The AWS S3 changes are required due to us requiring to upgrade the S3 assembly version to get net core support (which made all methods async).
The ACL checks for files are not available in the system libraries of net core, as such the api is a bit different.
AutomationToolLauncher now just spawns a subprocess when used in netcore, as netcore does not support custom AppDomains and shadow copying. We will generally need to revisit this for netcore as this whole feature of building the source for UAT in UAT is not really possible.
To enable this set environment variable "UE_USE_DOTNET=1", note that with netcore all applications change their output path so this will likely break a bit of tooling when enabled.
