* For thumbnail renderers, the prototype of RenderViewFamily (which is called by all the types of thumbnail renderers) has been changed to take a non-const FSceneView* parameter (so that SetupView can be called on it) and the various GetView functions have been renamed CreateView since it more accurately depicts what the functions do (plus they return the non-const view they've created)
* UGameViewportClient::Draw was calling SetupViewFamily but not SetupView
* Made sure FSceneRenderer::ViewExtensionPreRender_RenderThread is called right before RenderThreadBegin for all code paths
* Made sure view extensions are gathered for all code paths rendering a view family
Note: BeginRenderViewFamily (i.e. game-thread), PostRenderView_RenderThread and PostRenderViewFamily_RenderThread are still not called on the non-standard code paths

- Deprecated legacy members from FPooledRenderTargetDesc.
- Deprecated ETextureRenderTarget and removed from RDG.
- TargetableTexture always equals ShaderResourceTexture.
- Simplified render target pool FindFreeElement.
- Create pooled buffers and textures with a known state.

FLinearColor has also been modified to make any double->float conversions explicit. Previously all 3D TVector versions were allowed to be implicit and thus could convert TVector<double> => FLinearColor => TVector4<float>.
Fixed up all engine and game casts. Added "//LWC_TODO: precision loss" around any explicit casts that previously were silently explicit and we may need to revisit for precision loss analysis.

Add a new CVar �r.ReflectionSkyLightCapture.EnableLightFunctions� to resolve this issue.

- Added ERDGBuilderFlags::AllowParallelExecute to tag specific builders to attempt parallel execution. This avoids cases where small graphs fork tasks and end up causing contention. Only the main scene render graphs are tagged.
- Moved RHI transition creation to an async task.
- Moved parallel execute setup and dispatch to an async task.
- Fixed RDG draining asserts using a short-term workaround by tagging relevant scene textures as non-transient.
- Deprecated RDG AddPass utilities without names and fixed up last remnants.
- Enabled parallel RDG execution by default.

This avoids a long stall on mesh draw command recording tasks at the end of the frame and saves about .1 ms of work off the render thread.
