- Created FGlobalDistanceFieldParameters2 using SHADER_PARAMETER_STRUCT.
- Can't remove existing struct since it's used by Niagara.
- Added SetupGlobalDistanceFieldParameters helper function to perform the necessary logic.
- Converted FScreenGridParameters to use SHADER_PARAMETER_STRUCT.
- Added SetupScreenGridParameters helper function to perform the necessary logic.
- Bind AO SampleDirections using SHADER_PARAMETER_STRUCT instead of GLOBAL_SHADER_PARAMETER_STRUCT + SetUniformBufferParameterImmediate.
- Removed all legacy shader parameters from FVisualizeMeshDistanceFieldCS, FConeTraceScreenGridObjectOcclusionCS, FConeTraceScreenGridGlobalOcclusionCS, FCombineConeVisibilityCS.
- Removed some unused variables

Implement tiled dispatch in the path tracer to reduce the likelyhood of GPU timeouts when rendering at high resolution. This also reduces the memory requirements for path state when running with path compaction enabled.
Change from a uint buffer to a structured buffer for storing path states which gives a small speedup.
Add indirect dispatch support to launch less work for compacted bounces (off by default as it does not seem to provide a speedup so far)

In the new uber shader setup we can just use VisualizeMode for that.

* No weight blend layers should never be normalized (in case of multiple edit layers, it could happen that all AllLayerWeightSum != 1, which would wrongly attenuate the no weight blend layer's weight)
* For the same reason, the visibility layer, which is not weight blended, could end up being blended with weight-blended layers, leaving to non-fully masked area where there is paint from another layer

Added wave wide work distribution of coverage testing through bitmask tiles. This didn't prove to be faster in my test but I'm checking it in for posterity and the work distribution code is good and may be useful elsewhere. We can delete the tile distribution from the rasterizer later.

The top layer texture had a unecessary UAV flag preventing to create cmask metadata.
