Mover movement system

Mover is Epic's experimental replacement for UCharacterMovementComponent (CMC). It moves any actor — not just capsule-based characters — through a data-driven, deterministic simulation with rollback networking. Movement logic lives in modular objects (movement modes, layered moves, transitions, modifiers) instead of a hard-coded enum + switch, and all state flows through replicated snapshot structs instead of direct component mutation.

Status in 5.8: Experimental (Engine/Plugins/Experimental/Mover/). APIs still change between minor versions. CMC remains fully supported; choose Mover for new projects that want its modular architecture, rollback netcode, or physics-driven movement — see the ue-character-and-movement skill for CMC.
