#change Added (desktop) platform abstraction for checking if UBT is running. Fully functional for Windows, WIP for Mac and Linux (should work, but can give false positives)

Cocoa isn't an event-polling API as UE4 expects, so previously we were subverting the NSApplication's event handling to pretend that it was. When the engine wasn't running the event loop fast enough, such as when loading where it isn't processed at all, this resulted in unresponsive windows and Spinning-Beachball-Of-Death. That isn't very satisfactory & to some users appears as if the application has crashed. To address these deficiencies without further attempts to subvert Cocoa, the game is now punted onto a separate thread where it can run its own tight-loop, leaving the main thread to handle the Cocoa event run-loop. Events are captured by delegate objects, as Cocoa requires, but dispatched and handled on the game thread which makes Cocoa appear more like other platform APIs to the higher-level UE4 code.
This can all be disabled using the MAC_SEPARATE_GAME_THREAD define in CocoaThread.cpp.

Fixed CONSTEXPR definitions.
Converted EFontImportFlags to an enum class in order to test this feature.

added support for grayscale jpeg
fix memory leak in jpeg code
changes in AssetTools to allow to specify precise factory when multiple factories support the same filetype
changes in Plugin.cs to allow binary only plugins
exposed parts of engine API to other modules

Whenever a blank engine association is read from a .uproject via GetEngineIdentifierForProject(), it checks up the directory hierarchy for an engine capable of loading it via its .uprojectdirs search directories. If found, it will use that engine's local identifier from the registry, or register it if it doesn't exist.
Setting a project's engine association to an engine which is capable of loading it via it's .uprojectdirs will cause it to write a blank engine association string into the .uproject (and triggering the behaviour above on open).

* Lots of code moved into IDesktopPlatform for sharing with Launcher and Mac (including setting up file associations, querying project versions, etc...)
* Hack to enumerate all the known launcher engine installations. Does not use registry keys any more. Will probably change to use a list of installations generated by the launcher at some point soon.
* List of registered GitHub builds is stored in HKEY_CURRENT_USER
* Switching engine versions is now done through a dialog rather than through the context menu.
* VersionSelector includes a version number for shell integration, allowing it to defer to an existing installation of the same version if necessary.
