Spot Lights Do Not Cast Dynamic Shadows If "Support PointLight WholeSceneShadows" is disabled

UDN
Description

If you disable "Support PointLight WholeSceneShadows" spotlights stop casting shadows. This is working as expected in 4.20 CL# 4369336.

Found in 4.21 CL# 4753647 and 4.22 CL# 4809892

This is a regression.

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Open the Editor
  2. Go to project settings and disable "Support PointLight WholeSceneShadows"
  3. Place a cube into the scene
  4. Place a Spot Light above the cube and set it to moveable

Results:
No shadows will be produced from the cube

Expected:
A shadow would be cast
