### Summary
- Puts back `EventSink.SocketConnect`.
- Reverts networking change to push the networking to a separate thread.
- Reverts changes to the firewall by removing the firewall queue.
- Fixes listeners not shutting down with the server.
- Fixes race condition causing connections to get stuck even after they are disposed.
> [!NOTE]
> **Developer Note**
> Networking has been reverted back to using the main thread instead of a background thread. This alleviated complexity and the requirement for concurrent queues all over the place.

### Summary
Updates the serialization strategy to use `MemoryMappedFile` instead of thick buffers. This has the benefit of being on-par with the current implementation (based on hardware/OS), however won't incur the double-memory issue.
> [!Important]
> **Developer Note**
> The `BinaryFileWriter` and `BinaryFileReader` has been removed in favor of `MemoryMapFileWriter` and `UnmanagedDataReader`
### Summary
- Generalizes the On/Off toggle items concept
- Updates the OnOffGump so it is static
- Standardizes OnOff items so they can be used by staff
### Notes
Decided to not fix#1417 because it is not clear that the clilocs or errors are for that purpose. Can't test this on OSI anyways.
### Summary

- Fixed New/Old haven placement.
- Removed force-profession starting location for SA+.
- Added Royal City for SA+
- Removed Occlo for Pre-AOS.
> [!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

- Consolidates process restarts to use `Core.Kill(true)`
- Removes some old messaging, for example processor optimization

> [!Warning]
