- test-specific targets and modules are constructed by RulesAssembly which removes a lot of spaghetti code
- no more excluding the Tests folder by default which is guaranteed to mislead users #fyi Jon.Nabozny
- test compilation in Tests is controlled through WITH_LOW_LEVEL_TESTS
- preparation code for switching tests between Catch2 / TestAutomation Fmwk

- optional alter of source file build order: towards beginning or end
- test build: correctly handle inclusion of special dependencies such as Engine, Editor, CoreUObject and ApplicationCore
- existing tests: add setup and teardown tests that initialize test modules. This causes setup and teardown to be local to module instead of global, which was not the correct way to run tests across multiple modules.

- bIncludeAllTests flag on target will compile with all tests: used on LowLevelTests target to run on preflights
- Preflights now running low level tests by default, only those from LowLevelTests and its dependencies stemming from Core and Projects

- Each module can now have a Tests folder at its root containing low level tests written with Catch2
- Used like this: UnrealBuildTool.exe -Mode=Test TargetName Platform Configuration
- It creates a test executable that's associated with the specified build Target and it includes all the tests for the Target AND all its dependencies as well
- When building without -Mode=Test it will omit the Tests folder contents from compilation: in theory we never allowed folders named Tests at the root of modules, but there might be isolated exceptions where we didn't validate folder names - in this case we will need to move that Tests folder one level up for example
- Code paths for test and non-test builds are entirely separated
