Support "Internal" include directory that will only be added to a Referencing module if the referenced module has the same scope. Intent is to to "hide" APIs from external modules that do not need to include headers that are intended for internal module use only.

RootDirectory, EngineDirectory, UnrealBuildToolPath are now found in BuildUtilities' UnrealBuild namesapce.
The way these are computed has changed. Previously, it was assumed that the application is UnrealBuildTool, and paths were constructed relative to that assembly.
Now, the assumption is that the process is located under a "Engine/Build/DotNET" sub-path and paths are constructed relative to that.

Renamed UE4.natvis to Unreal.natvis
Fixed up Project File Generator within the Unreal Build Tool
[CL 15009828 by mark lintott in ue5-main branch]
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 set of netcore csprojs to BuildUtilities and DotnetUtilities that build to a seperate output folder. This allows other tools to still target .net framework (like UAT for instance).
UBT is still by default targeted as .net framework.
Note that UBT built for net core has a different output directory Engine/Binaries/DotNet/UnrealBuildTool/UnrealBuildTool.exe - this is due to how a netcore project output looks with signficantly more files that are related to that application (that would be overwritten if using a shared directory).
To opt in to this set UE_USE_DOTNET=1 environment variable.
Please note that due to the changed output directory a lot of tooling will likely break at this point.
