- [X] Fixes conditionals for in-game commands so they use Ordinal comparisons.
- [X] Replaces ToLower.Contains with InsensitiveContains
- [X] Adds ValueStringBuilder
- [X] Implements ValueStringBuilder in a few places where it makes sense
- [X] Removes the redundant Wrap function and replaces it with an optimized version
- [X] Fixes list conversions in Utility
Closes#351
Bumps release version
- [X] Updates Movement packets
- [X] Adds OSI fastwalk packets. These aren't used on OSi anymore.
- [X] Adds new movement handling, but looks like the client doesn't use it. (Also leaving the 0x4000 Character List Flag off)
- [X] Adds time sync request handler, but also looks like the client doesn't use it.
- [X] Adds time sync response for time sync, just in case, but it isn't used, so not sure about the arguments.
- [X] Reimplements RunUO's fastwalk to use a circular array on the netstate instead of every mobile
- [X] Removes ClearFastwalkStack from RunUO implementation. This shouldn't be needed anymore
Changed fastwalk settings:
```cs
public static int WalkFootDelay { get; set; } = 440;
public static int RunFootDelay { get; set; } = 220;
public static int WalkMountDelay { get; set; } = 220;
public static int RunMountDelay { get; set; } = 110;
public static bool EnableFastwalkPrevention { get; set; } = true;
public static AccessLevel FastwalkExemptionLevel { get; set; } = AccessLevel.Counselor;
// If this is changed during runtime, then the steps array needs resizing.
public static int MaxSteps { get; private set; } = 4;
```

Notes about OSI fastwalk:
While it does work, I can't find a benefit in using it because of the variable speeds. If players moved at a single speed then we could refill the stack every X milliseconds with 6 keys and use a naive token bucket implementation.
Unfortunately variable speeds mount/run/walk/etc means we would have to use a leaky bucket algorithm.
If we are using a leaky bucket algorithm with a variable leak, then we don't need to send tokens because we are already tracking it on the server side.
ModernUO vs OSI Fastwalk:
When the fastwalk was implemented on OSI, it used up to 6 tokens. These tokens were probably distributed every 600-750 milliseconds. To get the same effect, the new fastwalk settings might need to be adjusted. I would tweak them and feel free to let me know what worked for you!

### API Breaking Change
Combined `AsciiMessage` and `UnicodeMessage` into a single function that takes two arguments, `bool ascii` and `string lang`. Lang can be null (or anything) if ascii is true.
- [X] Changes message packets
- [X] Cleans up some code
- [X] Uses benchmarks to determine if the spanwriter + copyfrom
- [X] Fixes several bugs
- [X] Updates more ordinal issues
- [X] Cleans up the code a bit
- [X] Turns classes static that should have been
- [X] Changes TcpServer.Instances to a HashSet
Bumps release version
- [X] Changes effect packets
- [X] Updates playing sounds
- [X] Updates Effects class to have more options so there are less direct calls to building the packets
- [X] Changes bonding status packet
- [X] Updates result so it is preallocated
- [X] Updates PipeWriter so it is awaitable
- [X] Simplifies NetState code to match changes
- [X] Adds a byte for empty checking so incoming/outgoing can have full pipes.
Bumps release version

- [X] Fixed bug where characters were showing up with their modded names in the character list
Bumps release version
