Original code was by Wes Fudala, contacted him and the reason he wrote it orginally (2012) was with the assumption that it would be possible to paint to seperate LOD levels.
- Removed RemoveInstanceVertexColorsWorker(MeshPaintEdMode) function (unnecessary and very similar to RemoveInstanceVertexColorsFromLOD (StaticMeshComponent)
- Altered RemoveComponentInstanceVertexColors (MeshPaintEdMode), does original checks but now calls RemoveInstanceVertexColors (StaticMeshComponent) which has the desired outcome

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)

These are mostly fixes to redundant comparisons and initialization code, but there's also a fix for serious looking scope issue in FontCache.cpp

- Inverse was one of the main reasons of crashes via lots of functions. Seems making default Inverse to be safer version seems better.
