Refactoring of pak signing to be more compatible with patching
- Store signatures in a block at the end of the pak file

MAJOR FEATURES + CHANGES
==========================
Change 2855309 on 2016/02/04 by Robert.Manuszewski@Robert.Manuszewski_NCL_Stream2
GC Cluster improvements:
- Moved cluster creation from PostLoad to after the entire package has been loaded to make sure all referenced objects are accounted for
- Added better support for objects that can't be added to a cluster for some reason (lazy loaded referenced etc)
- Added -gcnoclusters option to 'obj list' to list all GC objects excluding objects in clusters
- Reference chain search will now print info on clusters
Change 2854937 on 2016/02/03 by Steve.Robb@Dev-Core

+ Maybe fixed startup packages loading code: load startup packages AFTER initial moduels have been loaded, don't use the seek free flag.
Change 2848788 on 2016/01/29 by Steve.Robb@Dev-Core

Change 2846864 on 2016/01/28 by Chris.Wood@Chris.Wood.StreamB
Added retry to AddCrash web requests due to unexplained missing payloads in some crashes
[OPP-4995] - Crash reports are not appearing for Portal Main branch
Change 2846875 on 2016/01/28 by Richard.Fawcett@Richard.Fawcett_G5766_Main
Ensure that streams are properly closed when sending and receiving data in SimpleWebRequest
This is to resolve an intermittent issue whereby CrashReporterWebsite sometimes receives no payload on an HTTP POST request from CrashReportProcessor. This could be consistent with the request stream not being closed and flushed before the HTTP request is sent. MSDN documentation for GetRequestStream states "You must call the Stream.Close method to close the stream and release the connection for reuse. Failure to close the stream causes your application to run out of connections." Note that Close() is automatically called on a Stream during disposal, and Dispose() is automatically called when exiting the scope of a using statement.

Flush FAsyncPackage cache after pre-load to reduce peak memory usage when async loading (5.5-10x).
Change 2828630 on 2016/01/14 by Robert.Manuszewski@Robert.Manuszewski_NCL_Stream1
Adding debug code to catch memory stomps in the async loading buffers that's independent from mallocstomp allocator. Changed the signature of PageProtect functions to be able to read-only protect memory.
Change 2816129 on 2016/01/05 by Steve.Robb@Dev-Core

Change 2835466 on 2016/01/20 by Joe.Conley@Joe.Conley_EGJWD5708_Dev-Core-Minimal
Fix issue for cancelling package loads when there are still packages queued. Call their PackageLoadedDelegate with a "Cancelled" result.
Should solve remaining issue with UE-24062 - "Calling CancelAsyncLoading triggers an assert in FAsyncPackage::DetachLinker()"
- (ULevelStreaming::AsyncLevelLoadComplete was not being called if packages were still queued when cancel was issued)

Change 2838289 on 2016/01/21 by Robert.Manuszewski@Robert.Manuszewski_NCL_Stream1
[CL 2845588 by Robert Manuszewski in Main branch]
* Moving Ionic.Zip source code into UE4 from UE4 source.
* Only one left should be in Binaries/DotNET.
* Moving TPS info to source location.
* Deleting several copies that were floating around.
Assembly Resolve Refactor
* Added AssemblyUtils.InstallAssemblyResolver to handle resolving of known assemblies that may not exist in the same folder as the referencing assembly.
* This is now installed by UAT and UBT, which should handle all needs to load Ionic.Zip and RPCUtility.exe from scripts that install into subfolders of Binaries/DotNET.
* Other assemblies can be added easily as necesary, centralizing the location where this is handled.
* Removed AssemblyResolver from RPCUtilHelper as UBT handles it automatically now.
* Removed Ionic.Zip references from projects that weren't really using it.

UEB-261 - Ensure that compiling AutomationTool in VS will compile all other Automation Projects
* Just set AutomationTool as your startup project and pass the command to execute.
* VS will build the script modules at build time, instead of every time at runtime.
* To make this happen, "UBT.exe -ProjectFiles" now generates a companion AutomationTool.csproj.References that make AutomationTool depend on all Automation modules.
* AutomationTool.exe defaults to not building script modules at runtime. Pass -compile if you want to dynamically build them.
* Without the .references file, AutomationTool will only build itself and you will need to pass -compile.
* RunUAT.bat still works that same, defaulting to runtime compilation and supporting -nocompile flag. It then passes -compile (or nothing) to AutomationTool.
Other
* All Automation projects target .Net 4.5. Some already were and had hard dependencies on them (Rocket and SyncGithub -> Octokit). Now that AutomationTool directly depends on them, everything had to use .Net 4.5.
* Decoupled logic for -NoCompile and -NoCompileEditor. The flags are still confusing, but -NoCompile is no longer linked to -NoCompileEditor.
* Had to leave in stub support in UAT for -NoCompile else RunUAT.bat passes it along and UAT complains that it doesn't understand it.
* Added a CommandUtils.Run option to support run command, but still output the run duration.
* Reduced the verbosity when UAT.proj is run from dozens of lines per module to a single Module -> Output line. It was looking like there were problems, but it was just msbuild spew.
