- MeshPassProcessor create function takes feature level as create parameter
- MeshPassProcessor base stores the processor enum type (handy for reference and stat tracking per pass type)
When pass enum value is not available then EMeshPassType::Num is used for now

Add settings to FSceneViewFamily.
bOverrideVirtualTextureThrottle will disable the virtual texture page throttling.
VirtualTextureFeedbackFactor will set the feedback factor and defaults to r.vt.FeedbackFactor.
MRQ disables the virtual texture throttling and could override feedback factor based on some user setting.

Also create a FViewFamilyInfo for DrawTileMesh so that we have a valid SceneTexturesConfig when setting up view uniforms.
Moved material baking renderdoc capture so that it captures warm up frames.

Basic approach is to add HLSL types FLWCScalar, FLWCMatrix, FLWCVector, etc. Inside shaders, absolute world space position values should be represented as FLWCVector3. Matrices that transform *into* absolute world space become FLWCMatrix. Matrices that transform *from* world space become FLWCInverseMatrix. Generally LWC values work by extending the regular 'float' value with an additional tile coordinate. Final tile size will be a trade-off between scale/accuracy; I'm using 256k for now, but may need to be adjusted. Value represented by a FLWCVector thus becomes V.Tile * TileSize + V.Offset. Most operations can be performed directly on LWC values. There are HLSL functions like LWCAdd, LWCSub, LWCMultiply, LWCDivide (operator overloading would be really nice here). The goal is to stay with LWC values for as long as needed, then convert to regular float values when possible. One thing that comes up a lot is working in translated (rather than absolute) world space. WorldSpace + View.PrevPreViewTranslation = TranslatedWorldspace. Except 'View.PrevPreViewTranslation' is now a FLWCVector3, and WorldSpace quantities should be as well. So that becomes LWCAdd(WorldSpace, View.PrevPreViewTranslation) = TranslatedWorldspace. Assuming that we're talking about a position that's "reasonably close" to the camera, it should be safe to convert the translated WS value to float. The 'tile' coordinate of the 2 LWC values should cancel out when added together in this case. I've done some work throughout the shader code to do this. Materials are fully supporting LWC-values as well. Projective texturing and vertex animation materials that I've tested work correctly even when positioned "far away" from the origin.
Lots of work remains to fully convert all of our shader code. There's a function LWCHackToFloat(), which is a simple wrapper for LWCToFloat(). The idea of HackToFloat is to mark places that need further attention, where I'm simply converting absolute WS positions to float, to get shaders to compile. Shaders converted in this way should continue to work for all existing content (without LWC-scale values), but they will break if positions get too large.
General overview of changed files:
LargeWorldCoordinates.ush - This defines the FLWC types and operations
GPUScene.cpp, SceneData.ush - Primitives add an extra 'float3' tile coordinate. Instance data is unchanged, so instances need to stay within single-precision range of the primitive origin. Could potentially split instances behind the scenes (I think) if we don't want this limitation
HLSLMaterialDerivativeAutogen.cpp, HLSLMaterialTranslator.cpp, Preshader.cpp - Translated materials to use LWC values
SceneView.cpp, SceneRelativeViewMatrices.cpp, ShaderCompiler.cpp, InstancedStereo.ush - View uniform buffer includes LWC values where appropriate

Run a compute job that packs most commonly used instance data (LocalToWorld matrix and some other bits - 80 bytes) into per-instance vertex buffer. Vertex shader does not have access to GPUScene and instead loads instance data from a per-instance vertex buffer. If it needs more primitive/instance data than available then it will load it from Primitive UB, binding unique uniform buffer and breaking auto-instancing. Pixel shader has a full access to a GPUScene
There are 3 ways how FSceneDataIntermediates gets populated
1. PrimitiveId + GPUScene (Desktop)
2. Per-Instance data + Primitive UB (Mobile)
3. Primitive UB (auto-instancing disabled)
Details for GPUScene specific vertex inputs and access to FSceneDataIntermediates are hidden behind a macro:
VF_GPUSCENE_DECLARE_INPUT_BLOCK
VF_GPUSCENE_GET_INTERMEDIATES
FSceneDataIntermediates is now stored in FVertexFactoryIntermediates, FMaterialVertexParameters. Added a few GetPrimitiveData() overloads that allows you to access PrimitiveData depending on current context. Removed most of the cases where GetPrimitiveData() gets used with PrimitiveId.
