Mostly a find/replace, though I have looked through the changes and attempted to update references to other things as necessary (eg. renaming IOS plist files for IOS). I'm not set up to test on any platforms other than windows, and was hoping to get your blessing to submit and give QA enough time as possible to uncover issues before the next milestone release.
Particular things that I know I'm not sure about:
- Android references /UE4Game/ paths everywhere (for paths on device, I think). I have no idea if I've got them all.
- I've renamed the iOS mobileprovisions, but I don't know if they need regenerating for the new app name.
- Likewise, not sure what needs to be updated for icon bundles on iOS.
Things that have not been changed:
- Windows still uses IDI_UE4ICON for its icon
- UE4CommandLine.txt
- There's still a UE4Game module which is used by content-only projects

- Formalizing all TargetPlatforms to have a Client version, rename WindowsNoEditor to Windows, and removing DDPI specification of TargetPlatforms, and generate them programmatically
- Updated names DeviceProfiles and Build scripts, as above
- Some PlatformInfo class cleanup
- Added a TNonDesktopTargetPlatformBase class to make most TargetPlatforms simpler
- Added "No Compiled Support" to the Turnkey LaunchOn menu when the TargetPlatforms aren't compiled in (to show that even if you install an SDK, you will need to compile before you can LaunchOn)\
- Starting the transition away from PlatformInfo::FPlatformInfo to FDDPI
[CL 13966487 by Josh Adams in ue5-main branch]
- Renamed FDataDrivenPlatformRegistry::FPlatformInfo to FDataDrivenPlatformInfo
- Moved some fields from PlatformInfo::FTargetPlatformInfo to FDataDrivenPlatformInfo, and cleaned them up in the process
- Fixed the DataDrivePlatformInfo.ini files to match the previous items
- Removed FVanillaPlatformEntry, and now just using FTargetPlatformInfo to manage flavors under a vanilla PlatformInfo (see PlatformInfo::GetVanillaPlatformInfoArray())
- Cleaned up TPerPlatformValue, as it was often misused (took a group and platform name, but we can get the group from the platform name) [AnimationSharingManager.cpp, *Engine.cpp, Runtime\Engine\*, ]
- Fixed FBlueprintNativeCodeGenPaths::GetDefaultCodeGenPaths() to use IniPlatformName instead of some hacky code [BlueprintNativeCodeGenManifest.cpp]
- Fixed various Turnkey bugs that recent testing exposed
- Enabled AUTOSDKS_ENABLED in both Mac and Linux on the Editor side (not that there are much set up to use it)
- Using Turnkey to get the SDK status instead of ValidatePlatforms (gives more detailed information - may want to go back to ValidatePlatforms so only UBT is needed, but change it to give more info)
- Moved OnDeviceDiscovered and Lost delegates from each platform's TargetPlatform class to a static in ITargetPlatform - there was no need for per-platform implementations
- Started working on allowing for SDK to be installed with editor running and not need to restart editor - Work in Progress! It is not usable yet.

Also rework logic for determining whether a project needs to be compiled, to more closely match equivalent code in UAT. ITargetPlatform::NeedsTempTarget() now allows querying whether a project needs a temporary target to be generated.

- All Buffer<>/RWBuffer<> objects are now bound as texture2d or texture_buffer, unless they are 3-component, in which case they are bound as raw T* buffer pointers.
- 3-component Buffer/RWBuffer objects should now work - Metal needed to use packed_* types internally as normal 3-component types in Metal are the same size as 4-component types which is different to HLSL. This is untested as we have no such example.
- Texture Gather/GatherCompare operations have been fixed and should now work.
- Remove all the TypedBufferFormat function-constant specialisation infrastructure and metadata as it is no longer necessary.
- Remove all the raw-conversion for 1, 2 and 4 component vector types as it is no longer required.
- Fixed input qualifiers (centroid, linear, etc.) for Fragment shader inputs - they should now work.
- Remove a bunch of Metal specific shader changes due to buffer type casting and swizzling that will now just work.
- Use the BGRA vertex format for FColor on Metal when available (everywhere but iOS/tvOS 10 using Metal 1.2).
- Simplify ShouldCompilePermutation & similar functions now that we have fewer versions to support.
