- MediaModule now uses the platform Guid from DDPI instead of having a per-platform MediaInfo module that only supplied a Guid. Deleted many platform extension modules

[CL 14824685 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.

New feature for controling which platforms use certain aspects of Niagara.
Current users include;
- Emitter Enabled/Disabled switch
- System level scalability settings in EffectType and overrides in System.
- Emitter level scalability settings in EffectType and overrides in Emitter.
This entirely replaces previous Detail Level feature and all related code.
Now we allow users to select from EffectsQualitiy levels as a basic use case for scaling across platforms.
Further fine grained control can be acheived by setting per device profile overrides to this.
For example all Effects Quality levels could be enabled but Android could be specifically disabled. Or some subset of mobile devices.
TODO: Code is in place for this to cook out emitters but there are other impediments stopping this currently.
TODO: Sebastian has more UI changes incomming but as a v1.0 this is funtional.

MAJOR FEATURES & CHANGES
============================
Change 4073167 by Krzysztof.Narkowicz
Added subsurface profile for eye shading model.
#jira none
Change 4073422 by Krzysztof.Narkowicz
Added dual specular for subsurface profile shading model.
#jira none
Change 4075278 by Krzysztof.Narkowicz
Fixed forward reflection/refraction rendering issues, which caused ShaderModels.Material.Refraction to fail.
#jira none
Change 4084231 by Krzysztof.Narkowicz
Dual specular - replace lobe spread with two separate roughness multipliers. Default material roughness is now replaced by an average lobe roughness in order to support non dual specular features.
#jira none
Change 4092798 by Matt.Collins
Some HDR refactoring.
Previously the DisplayOutput and ColorGamut were only set in GameUserSettings.
I added a Sink that checks the HDR enable. If it's toggled we apply the correct DisplayOutput and ColorGamut for the current platform (this way we get good settings even if you toggle via the console). These settings are still exposed via the console and can be set independently if the user wants.
Change 4096954 by Chris.Bunner
Added ShaderModelID as scene texture option and renamed existing value to ShaderModelColor to better reflect the internal code.
Change 4111285 by Brian.Karis
Eye shading update.
Added Iris normal (disabled). Removed wrap. Fixed contact shadows.
Change 4155261 by Krzysztof.Narkowicz
Planar reflection prefilter - use scene viewport size instead of reflection target size in order to keep filter size constant in screen space. This makes planar reflection filter more stable in case of dynamic resolution.
#jira none
Change 4167644 by Krzysztof.Narkowicz
Global shader map is now stored in multiple DDC entries (one per shader filename) instead of keeping everything in a single one. This allows to skip recompilation of unchanged shader files.
Change 4183727 by Yuriy.ODonnell
Implemented auto-conversion from deferred to DBuffer decals in forward shading mode (when GBuffer is not available).
Added support for specular and metallic channels for DBuffer decals, based on work by Chris Bunner.
This requires DBufferC to be expanded from 2 to 4 channels, leading to slight increase in DBuffer bandwidth and memory requirements.
Appearance of DBuffer decals is affected by this change, as specular and metallic channel values previously hard-coded in DBufferDecalShared.ush.
Decals were forced to be non-metallic and have specular of 4% (0.5 numeric value). Now the authored decal material values will be used, which matches GBuffer decals.
Added support for DBuffer decals with emissive component.
Most decal types can now be automatically converted, with the exception of stain decals. Those are currently approximated as regular translucent decals.
Change 4197684 by laz.matech
Added a PostProcess Volume test to the map to test that Cinematic Depth of View can be achieved through PPVs as well. Changed the BP_DepthOfFeildPOV asset - I exposed Focus Method so that it can be disabled for the PPV test. Added a second Hair Model head to the InFocusHair test so that it tests in and out of focus hair models (changed the name of the test to FocusHair).
#jira none
Change 4225614 by Rolando.Caloca
DR - Enable depth collision particles on Vulkan mobile
Change 4235489 by Uriel.Doyon
Removed r.DefaultFeature.PointLightUnits and r.DefaultFeature.SpotLightUnits and replaced them by a single r.DefaultFeature.LightUnits which also controls the units of newly placed rect lights.
#jira UE-59525
Change 4260154 by Mark.Satterthwaite
Parallelize the creation of Metal archives and libraries when they are broken up into smaller sub-libraries, this should reduce apparent cook time by going wide across threads on the host of the cooker.
Change 4270594 by Brian.Karis
Fix for textured rect light L pointing away from plane due to approximate diffuse integration.
Change 4273361 by Daniel.Wright
Particle Cutouts with 8 verts now always use stochastic approach. Circle textures with > 234 edges in the convex hull were overflowing the uint64 calculation of the total number of combinations, causing an infinite loop.
Change 4309174 by Mark.Satterthwaite
Graph device utilization from the driver monitor stats - really helps see how well the GPU is being used.
Change 4310121 by Matt.Collins
Optmizing RemoveUniformBuffersFromSource. Brings it from ~20% to ~1.5% in my testing.
#jira none
Change 4312960 by Daniel.Wright
Fix from Stephen Hill for incorrect light grid culling near the near plane
Change 4314169 by Richard.Wallis
FShaderCache and associated public structures are now marked as deprecated. All FShaderCache code hooks removed from MetalRHI, OpenGLDrv and engine Launch/Shutdown logic.
#jira none
Change 4320760 by Arne.Schober
DR - Remove SV_Coverage from basepass interpolants when running with Masked in early Depth with ForwardShading as otherwise earlyZ will be disabled (as the PS has to run).
#jira UE-60992
Change 4334607 by Uriel.Doyon
Added custom overrides to reset ULightComponent::Intensity to default (in FLightComponentDetails).
Now settings a light Intesity to default resets the brightness to the archetype brightness.
This handles correctly cases where the intensity units differs between the two objects.
Also changed FLocalLightComponentDetails so that changing intensity units kepts the same brightness
(by recomputing the Intensity).
#jira UE-61401
Change 4336188 by Rolando.Caloca
DR - Added -ReduceThreadUsage so programs can use less threads (for SCW )
Change 4337967 by Rolando.Caloca
DR - Remove unused RHISupportsShaderCompression function
