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)

This allows you to align your view in the editor, select an actor in the
world outliner or in scene, right-click and select "Snap Actor to
Camera". Actor will then set its location and rotation to match the
view. This is super handy for quickly finding an awesome camera view in
the editor and then making your CameraActors match that view.

I have reviewed each change carefully, but it is a large change and I could have missed something! Here is a summary of the types of changes in this CL:
* Made nullptr checks consistent (the plurality of the changes are of this type)
* Completed switch statements (IE, switch did not explicitly handle default case, but had unhandled enum entries - this is the second most popular type of fix)
* Removed unused variables
* Removed redundant initializations
* WidgetNavigationCustomization.cpp was fixed by the owner
* integers converted to floats where result was stored in a float
* Removed redundent null checks (e.g. before delete statements)
* Renamed variables to prevent non-obvious shadowing
* Fixed use of bitwise & when checking for equality to an enum entry (which is often 0)
* Fixes for some copy paste errors (e.g. FoliageEdMode.cpp)

I have gone through these changes and verified that whatever behavior change they cause could only be an improvement (generally they just prevent possible access to nullptrs, but there are also some style corrections). A separate changelist is being prepared that includes changes that could unintentionally caues behavior change for the worse.
