- When the tool was created we tried to avoid discovering all plugins as it was very slow. Since then it has been optimized and only costs 500ms or so, which for now is acceptable. So now we allow plugins to be discovered in the normal way. If the plugins have been set up correctly to work with the tool then they will be loaded.
- Note that the perforce plugin still needs to be mounted manually, but no longer needs the paths adding.
- Removed UE_DISABLE_PLUGIN_DISCOVERY from the Target.cs so that we scan for all plugins on startup.
- Removed adding of perforce to AdditionalPlugins in the Target.cs as it wasn't really doing anything.

### Features
- Designed to be a custom tool in P4V although it can be called manually.
- The submit works just like the in editor package submission process.
- If the changelist being submitted contains packages from multiple projects the tool can virtualize each project's packages in a separate pass.
### Limitations
- Currently no way to auto install, this has to be compiled and set up manually
- The tool is written in cpp and uses engine code, this is so we can share the in editor code for pushing payloads and work with any additional backend plugins that 3rd parties may have written.
- If a changelist does not contain any packages, or the packages are in a project that does not support virtualization there will be a small amount of overhead while the tool works out that nothing needs to be done.
