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)

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

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
