## Summary
Replaces `FastAStarAlgorithm` with `BitmapAStarAlgorithm`: one cache lookup per cell expansion (8-direction mask + per-direction destination Z) instead of 8 separate `MovementImpl.CheckMovement` calls. Adds the supporting cache infrastructure to back it.
Public API unchanged — `MovementPath` / `Mobile.Move` / `CalcMoves.Find` return the same shapes; the algorithm swap is internal.
## What's in this PR
- **`BitmapAStarAlgorithm`** — A* that issues one `StepCache.TryGetMask` call per cell expansion. Inline fallthrough to the per-cell slow path for multi-Z, off-map, source-Z mismatch, and non-default walkers.
- **`StepCache`** — singleton chunk store keyed by `(mapId, chunkX, chunkY)`. Lazily built on first query, invalidated by `Sector.MultisVersion` mismatch, memory-bounded by sampled probabilistic LRU.
- **`StepProbe`** — computes static-only walkability for a single cell, mirroring `MovementImpl.Check` minus the item / mobile collision phases.
- **`StepMask` / `StepChunk`** — value / storage types for the per-cell results.
- **`CacheEvictionTimer`** — periodic cap backstop (60s interval; early-returns when not over cap).
- **`Map.Sector.MultisVersion`** promoted to `public` so the cache can detect dynamic-static invalidations cheaply.
## Eviction strategy
Sampled probabilistic LRU (Redis-style). Per eviction, sample 5 random keys from a parallel `List<long>` kept in lockstep with the chunk dictionary; evict the oldest of the sample via swap-and-pop. O(1) per eviction regardless of resident count, so sustained cap pressure has no perpetual perf hit.
## Capability handling (interim)
Non-default walkers (non-GM players, creatures with `CanSwim` / `CanFly` / `CanOpenDoors` / `CanMoveOverObstacles`) route entirely through the per-cell slow path via `BitmapAStarAlgorithm.GetSuccessorsSlowPath`. The 2-pass design (cache + capability overlay + dynamic-obstacle pass) lands in the follow-up PR.

## Summary
Upgrades the networking stack from PollGroup-based I/O to io_uring, significantly improving I/O performance on Linux.
This also adds native client encryption support for encrypted UO clients.
## Major Changes
io_uring Networking Architecture
- Replaced PollGroup with IORingGroup for async socket I/O operations
- Removed Pipe.cs (mirrored ring buffer) and TcpServer.cs in favor of RingSocketManager
- Added NetState.Network.cs - centralized network infrastructure handling accept, recv, send, and disconnect
completions
- Added SocketHelper.cs - platform-specific socket utilities for raw socket handle operations (getpeername,
getsockname)
- Buffer management now handled by RingSocketManager with configurable slab allocation
### Client Encryption Support
- Added full encryption stack in Network/Encryption/:
- EncryptionConfig.cs - configurable encryption modes (None, Unencrypted, Encrypted, Both)
- EncryptionManager.cs - encryption detection and initialization for login/game packets
- LoginEncryption.cs - handles login packet encryption with version-derived keys
- GameEncryption.cs - handles game server encryption using Twofish
- TwofishEngine.cs - optimized Twofish block cipher implementation
- LoginKeys.cs - encryption key table for client versions
- IClientEncryption.cs - interface for client encryption implementations
### NetState Improvements
- Replaced Socket Connection with RingSocket _socket for managed socket lifecycle
- Changed from GCHandle polling to event-based completion processing
- Disconnect handling now properly waits for pending sends to flush
- Simplified connecting socket management using lazy queue removal
### Configuration
- New settings: network.encryptionMode and network.encryptionDebug
- Encryption mode flags: Unencrypted, Encrypted, or Both
### Dependencies
- Replaced PollGroup NuGet package with IORingGroup
- Linux requires liburing-dev / liburing-devel package
### Test plan
- Verify server starts and accepts connections on Linux with io_uring
- Verify server starts and accepts connections on Windows (fallback to IOCP)
- Test unencrypted client connections (ClassicUO with encryption disabled)
- Test encrypted client connections if available
- Verify graceful disconnect flushes pending data
- Confirm CI builds pass on all target platforms
> [!Note]
> **Developer Note**
> Now developers will only need to build/run the Application project instead of everything.
> When adding new projects, make sure to:
> 1. Add a reference to that project in the Application project.
> 2. Add the dll file to the Distribution/Data/assemblies.json file
### Summary
- Adds an application project
- Consolidates process restarts to use `Core.Kill(true)`
- Removes some old messaging, for example processor optimization
- Fixes missing build cleanup
* Makes EnsureDirectory properly work for relative and absolute paths
* Adds a `PathUtility.GetFullPath` which returns full paths for relative paths to `Core.BaseDirectory`. If the path is absolute, it will return as-is.
* Moves EnsureDirectory to `PathUtility`. So `ScriptsHandler.EnsureDirectory` and `AssemblyHandler.EnsureDirectory` are now `PathUtility.EnsureDirectory`
* Fixes crash guard so that it copies accounts properly.
* Changes world save and auto archive to use a random folder name inside of the temp folder.
