- Fixes wrong/bad 16bit html gump hues.
- Moves `C16232` (16-bit to 32-bit) and `C32216` (32-bit to 16-bit) to Utility class for broader use.
TODO:
- Some gumps have different 32bit (for string content) vs 16bit (for localized content) strings. Does this matter?

> [!CAUTION]
> **BREAKING CHANGE**
> Removed `OrderdHashSet` and `PooledOrderedHashSet` due to bugs.
> [!NOTE]
> **Developer Note**
> The OrderedSet is not a full data structure. It is not particularly efficient. Pull Requests are welcome for a better implementation, especially if it ends up supporting `ISet<T>` and `IReadOnlySet<T>`
## Summary
The ordered hash set was buggy. It's kind of painful to implement, so for now, I added a simple `OrderedSet` to suffice for gumps. Please reach out if this causes disruption!
