Description
We want to encourage more users to run projects against preview versions of the engine and be more aware of changes we make.
There should be an option to disable these messages (eg 'Don't show again') and it can be enabled in a setting on the Editor on a per user basis. This is so that we don't 'spam' messages to users depending on our frequency of engine minor releases.

Research direction
The issue does not name any files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the Editor's engine-version promotion flow and its per-user settings, then trace where modal messages are created. Done means a new minor-version promotion shows a dismissible message and the user can disable future messages.
