Explicit serialization functions used instead of reflection, to avoid deserialization problems on Mono.
Version number added to makefiles to allow versioning in future.
Makefiles still disabled if the host platform differs from the built platform, to continue to avoid any problems 'when building with RPCUtility'.

we now use an enum similar to UE4 with Fatal, Error, Warning, Display, Log, Verbose, and VeryVerbose
Log will only go to the log file unless -verbose is passed on the command line
reduced some of the output from UAT to be Log only

CaselessDictionary made serializable.
New FileContentsCacheType for enabling simple lookup and caching of file contents.
Fix for module references differing in case from module definitions e.g. Http and HTTP.
Some general refactoring.

- Experimenting with disabling this to see if we notice any drawbacks (seems fine after a few days of testing)
[CL 2517690 by Mike Fricker in Main branch]
- Fixed flat include cache not being refreshed after user switches between projects
- Fixed flat include cache not being rebuilt if the cache file was missing
[CL 2402092 by Mike Fricker in Main branch]
- Fixed crash after trying to build a target different than the one you built last time when DependencyCache was missing
[CL 2400418 by Mike Fricker in Main branch]
- Collapsed and renamed some of the new UBT settings for fast build iteration
- New 'BuildConfiguration.bUseUBTMakefiles' that replaces the old experimental settings (defaults to off in this changelist.)
- Cleaned up some comments
- No effective changes
[CL 2400071 by Mike Fricker in Main branch]
- Faster include dependency caching (ToLowerInvariant() is faster than StringComparer.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase on all platforms)
- Cached off the list of FileInfos when requesting cached include dependencies (reduces string hash lookup spam)
- Moved an object lookup out of an inner loop
[CL 2399988 by Mike Fricker in Main branch]
- Hot reload now works when using bUseExperimentalFastBuildIteration and bUseExperimentalFastDependencyScan
- We use a separate Makefile and built target set for Hot Reload vs. normal compiles
- This allows for extremely quick outdateness checking and incremental builds from the editor

#ttp 345522: HotReload: Should not try to link DLLs when target is up to date
#change Added code to handle up-to-date state of modules in hot-reload code.
#change Added ECompilationResult::UpToDate and ECompilationResult::Canceled, ECompilationResult::Failed()
#change UBT: added -canskiplink command line param and support for skipping link actions when there was nothing to compile
#change extended the duration of re-compile notifications (TTP# 346604 NUXF-246 Hot compile fail message fades)
#change Added 'Compile Canceled' notification (instead of 'Compile Failed')

- Indirect C++ includes weren't considered outdated if the UBTMakefile was also out of date in the same session
[CL 2265050 by Mike Fricker in Main branch]
UnrealBuildTool 'Makefiles' allow for very fast iterative builds.
- New BuildConfiguration.xml setting added: "bUseExperimentalFastBuildIteration" (disabled by default)
- Turning this on causes Unreal Build Tool to emit 'UBT Makefiles' for targets when they're built the first time.
- Subsequent builds will load these Makefiles and begin outdatedness checking and build invocation very quickly.
- The caveat is that if source files are added or removed to the project, UBT will need to gather information about those in order for your build to complete successfully.
- Currently, you must run the project file generator after adding/removing source files to tell UBT to re-gather this information.
- Events that can invalidate the 'UBT Makefile':
- Adding/removing .cpp files
- Adding/removing .h files with UObjects
- Adding new UObject types to a file that didn't previously have any
- Changing global build settings (most settings in this file qualify.)
- Changed code that affects how Unreal Header Tool works
- You can force regeneration of the 'UBT Makefile' by passing the '-Gather' argument, or simply regenerating project files
- New command-line parameters added:
- "-Gather": Tells UBT to always perform the gather step (slower but will catch project structural changes)
- "-NoGather": Disables the gather step, unless UBT detects that it must be done. This is the default when bUseExperimentalFastBuildIteration is enabled
- "-GatherOnly": Runs the gather step and saves a UBTMakefile, but doesn't build anything
- "-Assemble": Tells UBT to also assemble build products. This always defaults to enabled
- "-NoAssemble": Tells UBT to skip the assemble step, whether we gathered build products or not
- "-AssembleOnly": Tells UBT to only assemble build products and not to gather, unless UBT determines it must
Other changes:
- UBT now keeps track of which targets it was building in an intermediate file, to help it invalidate cached includes in subsequent runs when the targets are different
- C++ includes are now stored in a class separate from the C++ compile enviroment (for easier serialization)
- The method that UBT uses to find the CoreUObject module timestamp was rewritten
- Various '@todo ubtmake' comments added to tag possible remaining Makefile tasks
- The 'FileItem' class had some member variable comments and code cleaned up, while making it serializable
- Cleaned up the comments and member variables in the "Action" class, while making it serializable
- Some UBT classes are now "serializable". This is because we need to store the data in UBTMakefiles.
- Removed support for Actions to tinker with Stdout and Stderror (was not used for anything)
- Moved PrecompileHeaderEnvironment class to the UEBuildModule.cs source file
- Plugin intermediate include directories are now selected on demand rather than cached early
- Toolchain code for gathering prerequisite headers is now shared in a single function (AddPrerequisiteSourceFile)
- Removed Action.StatusDetailedDescription, was not used for anything
- Removed UEBuildConfiguration.bExcludePlugins, was not used for anything
- Removed ECompilationResult.FailedDueToHeaderChange, was not used for anything
