Integration touches several places in the engine:
1) SoundWave -- A check box enables Bink Audio as the codec of choice for that sound wave.
2) Decoder - Each supported platform's AudioMixer now returns BINK if the soundwave requests it. Additionally, the TargetPlatform returns BINK as an available codec, and returns it to the cooking code if the sound wave requests it.
3) Encode - TargetPlatform.Build.cs adds the encoder to the editor dependencies, and it gets picked up in the TPMM formats search.

Removed bSupportsVolumeTextureCompression as all platforms support it now, only Switch fallbacks to uncompressed

- Removed other uses of LoadLocalIni from TargetPlatforms (eventually LoadLocalIni and LoadGlobalIni will hopefully be hidden away with better APIs in FConfigCacheIni)

[CL 14490797 by Josh Adams in ue5-main branch]
- 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.
