Currently sized for Mermaid VeryFast only, but we use Kraken Fast in certain places,
and bumping it up all the way to Kraken Normal is less than a 2x increase in memory
use (~1.2MB/scratch buffer to ~2.2MB in the editor; not used in game)

Parallelizing FBlockDecoder::TryDecompressTo

[CL 25311278 by keaton stewart in ue5-main branch]
Due to the fact that UnrealPak doesn't load INIs, the cvar was always its default value. This, combined with the fact that shaders don't store what codec they are compressed with means that setting this cvar to anything other than default (oodle) causes a crash in UnrealPak as DecompressShader will try to decompress with Oodle independent of the actual codec. Rather than plumb this information down through ProjectParams, I felt it prudent to just always use Oodle.
Additionally, in order to facilitate faster iteration times for development build farm jobs, the shader compression level used during UnrealPak will inherit from the overall package compression level set via Project Settings (PackageCompressionLevel_*).
This tacitly avoids patch issues as the default shader compression level happens to be the default package compression level, except now it inherits any faster levels for iteration time.
Note that we still use Mermaid as the codec as it's faster for decompressing than Kraken, which we care about for shaders.

- Hexdump of the whole compressed shader will be dumped if small enough (which is what we're seeing mostly).

Things to note regarding this pass:
* No includes are currently being removed from public headers.
* Any private file that has a #if is currently not being updated.

- Only the first 20 bytes of the RawHash field in the header will be consumed.
- In a subsequent change, the last 12 bytes of the RawHash field will be set to zero for new compressed buffers.
- Leveraged composite buffers to avoid performing an extra copy of compressed blocks.
- Updated FBlockEncoder::Compress to always use ParallelFor.
- Added ParallelForWithPreWorkWithTaskContext.
