- Added a UserDataKey metadata property and exposed a filter for set tags (along the same lines as the collision filter)
- Exposed some properties of UTileSet as readable from Blueprints
- Removed the Experimental tag on the per-tile metadata

#jira UE-11822 - Add up vector, roll and scale properties to USplineComponent which can be used when calculating rotations/transforms at a point on the spline
#jira UE-13333 - BP spline components do not update when setting points
#jira UE-3637 - SplineComponent: Add a get transform at distance accessor
Summary of changes:
- FInterpCurve now natively understands looping. A input key can be set, at which point the spline will loop back to its start point. Adjusted FInterpCurve methods to take looped curves into account.
- Fixed bugs in FInterpCurve regarding returning default values (T(ForceInit) instead of T() otherwise FVectors and FQuats are not initialized correctly).
- SplineComponent now holds three separate splines (location, rotation and scale).
- The SplineReparamTable is no longer transient, but is built and saved as part of the asset.
- Changed the SplineComponent API. All methods now take a ESplineCoordinateSpace value which specifies whether the values are intended for use in local or world space. The old methods have been deprecated but not removed (for now).
- bAllowSplineEditingPerInstance is deprecated. A new member (bSplineHasBeenEdited) has superseded it, and is set automatically when editing the spline with the visualizer. Added "Reset to Default" option in the visualizer, which restores the archetype defaults.
- SplineComponentVisualizer determines if spline points have been initialized by the user construction script, and, if so, will disallow editing. This is to conform with the general idea that the UCS always overrides property values.
- Fixed a number of bugs in the visualizer, and added new facilities to allow the scale and rotation to be edited (still work-in-progress).

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)

- changed an assert to a warning when calling LoadObject in PostLoad
- added an opt-out ability for IsTimeLimitExceeded warning
- added descriptions of the current work performed during async loading for IsTimeLimitExceeded warning
- made sure we don't check IsTimeLimitExceeded when we already know we timed out.

flag bFirstCompileChildrenThenReinstance was removed.
Problem was: actor cannot be reconstructed before all objects have new/proper class set.
Fast reinstancing was split into 2 phases in the first phase the new class is set. In the 2nd actors are reconstructed, etc..

- Linkers are no longer UObjects. Renamed ULinker, ULinkerLoad and ULinkerSave to FLinker, FLinkerLoad, FLinkerSave respectively
- Linkers are now associated with their UPackages
- Linker version is now stored in UPackages
- Async loading is now performed on a separate thread (if platform supports it and only in cooked builds), with the exception of PostLoad which is still done on the game thread
- Added UObject::IsPostLoadThreadSafe() function to determine if PostLoad is thread safe and can be executed on the async loading thread (defaults to false)
- UObject creation is now thread safe and can be performed on any thread
- Move many of the linker/UObject globals into FUObjectThreadContext (TLS)
- GetAsyncLoadPercentage() now takes PostLoad into account
- More async loading stats
- Added AtomicallySetFlags/ClearFlags to UObject
- Made FModuleManager thread safe.
- Added FGCScopeGuard as means of preventing GC from executing from non-game thread
- It's possible to disable async loading thread through ini settings.
- Cancelling async loading will now also trigger GC
- Implemented a basic version of async streaming priorities.

Core - Added AtomicallySetFlags/ClearFlags to UObject, added a comment to ThisThreadAtomicallyClearedRFUnreachable
[CL 2498249 by Robert Manuszewski in Main branch]
- Added support for circle/sphere collision shapes
- Added support for rotating the collision/rendering shapes
- Added more specific statistics about baked collision geometry (splitting it out by primitive type, etc...)
- Added automatic identification of custom geometry that forms a rectangle, generating more efficient collision shapes than treating them as convex would
- Changed collision rendering color to be blue instead of yellow, moving further from the selection color white which helps with comprehension of what items are selected
- Added a subdued background for shapes, allowing the entire shape to be selected with a click
- Hid 'Add Polygon' button when not in a geometry editing mode
- Added an 'Add Box' toolbar button (visible when editing geometry)
- Added an 'Add Circle' toolbar button (only visible when editing collision geometry)
- Prevented an unnecessary texture analysis pass from being done each frame when editing sprites (although it now triangulates the shapes each frame, which can be cached in the future)
- Prevented hit testing on the pivot display widget, avoiding a 'missed click' feeling if you tried to select a shape or edge that overlapped with it
Internal details:
- Renamed FSpritePolygon to FSpriteGeometryShape
- Renamed FSpritePolygonCollection to FSpriteGeometryCollection (and renamed Polygons to Shapes inside of it)
- Changed definition of FSpriteGeometryShape::BoxPosition to be the center of the shape instead of the top-left corner
- Changed definition of FSpriteGeometryShape::Vertices to be defined in shape local space, relative to BoxPosition with no rotation applied, and added conversion methods to move to and from texture space
- Most references to polygons have been replaced with shapes
- Changed how selection state is tracked in the viewport editor client, WIP
- Started to move geometry editing/rendering code out of the sprite editor viewport client, so it can be shared with other tools in the future, WIP
