- Adding new enumeration to select PCM, ADPCM, Bink, and "platform specific"
- Updated platform codecs and various APIs to select correctly which codec to use
- Changed "is seekable streaming" semantics to "Is Seekable" since that is more correct in a post-stream-caching world
- Tried to clean up platform backends. Unable to move Bink decoder to multiplatform code because of module dependencies, will require a future refactor of our decoder module setup.

The endian of BGR555A1 texture is troublesome on Android platform, because Opengl ES doesn't support GL_UNSIGNED_SHORT_1_5_5_5_REV texture format, meanwhile VK_FORMAT_R5G5B5A1_UNORM_PACK16 is not supported on some Android devices.

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.

- Also removed the previous FastBuild shader compiler integration based on an older API.
- Made Distributed Build controller selection OS-agnostic.
