Adds. Gen2Callback for STArrayPool so it can purge the internal array stacks properly. This only happens if significant timed has passed, 2 Gen 2's have been run, and memory pressure exceeds a threshold.
Changes gump compilation to use string interpolation. .NET 6 uses code generation and compile time tricks to speed up string interpolation between 15 and 30% and reduce allocations dramatically.
## Added Feature
Adds a single threaded array pool that works exactly the same as `ArrayPool<T>.Shared`.
The `STArrayPool<T>.Shared` can only be used on a single thread, the main game thread of the server.
Note: Unlike the built-in array pool, there is no hook into the _GC Gen 2_. This means to relieve potentially high memory pressure, `ArrayPool<T>.Shared.Trim()` must be called. The pool will only release arrays _after two successive calls within 10 seconds or longer_. If the server is at less than 70% total memory usage, or the server is not going to use this pool for something egregious, then don't bother ever calling Trim().
## Changes
- [X] Fixes ArrayPool calls that should be cleared due to references.
- [X] Benchmarks against ArrayPool with 4+ rented arrays deep of the same length.
- [x] Unit tests
- [X] Removes static freezing/unfreezing. Use other tools for this.
- [X] Cleans up IPoint3D allocations
- [X] Removes IPoint3D constructors since the compiler may not optimize the constructor path and allow allocations.
Note: Instead of `new Point3D(m)`, do something like `new Point3D(m.Location)`. Sorry for the inconvenience. In the long run this will prevent abuse of hot paths that will cause performance issues.
- [X] Removes several `ToList()` uses with `PooledRefQueue`
- [X] Adds a `PeekRandom` to PooledRefQueue
- [X] Updates EV/BS so they dispel each other in a more efficient manner.
- [X] Fixes Firebomb so it works like a normal firefield.
- [X] Fixes field spells so they aren't unnecessarily using a Point3D ref more than necessary.
- [X] Removes extra allocation in campfire by using reverse loop.
- [X] Removes other LINQ calls that aren't needed.
.NET 6 introduced a breaking change where lseek and sys-calls are not used for reading and file streams. This effectively broke out native reader. Since the file reading is fairly optimized, and honestly we don't need it to be "fast" in this case, I have removed the native reader.

* Adds the following configurations:
* `movement.delay.npcMinDelay` - 0.1 - Pets or Non-monster NPCs
* `movement.delay.npcMaxDelay` - 0.4 - Pets or Non-monster NPCs
* `movement.delay.monsterMinDelay` - 0.4 - Non-pet Monsters or NPC vs Player Combat
* `movement.delay.monsterMaxDelay` - 0.8 - Non-pet Monsters or NPC vs Player Combat
* `movement.delay.monsterMinDex` - 150 - Dex maximum for delay by dex
* `movement.delay.MinDex` - 190 - Dex maximum for delay by dex
Fixes an issue with DropReq where an old client was sending in 14 bytes, but the server was expecting 15 bytes.
To fix this we introduced a new packet handler, `ContainerGridPacketHandler` and changed the code to determine the length of the packet dynamically using `GetLength(NetState)`.
Also fixed throttling so dropped packets are properly skipped.
- [X] Replace serialization generator with nuget
- [X] Replace schema migration with dotnet bool
- [X] Add ability to run migrations in VS/Rider using a project build
* Adds a custom BitArray class with the following added features:
* ctor for creating BitArray against read only span
* ctor for creating BitArray against BinaryReader
* CopyTo to copy a BitArray to a Span
* Adds BitArray to UO Primitive serialization so it can be codegenned.
* Adds MinRequired and MaxRequired settings
* Removes god client detection
* Streamlines the kick messaging
* Fixes detecting client version on mac/linux
* Fixes an issue with moving directories across volumes
* Removes usages of WebClient
* Removes usages of Cryptographic Providers
Note: Even though .NET 6 introduces Xoshiro RNG, there is no way to control the seed. I'll do some reconciliation of Xoshiro so it functions closer to the built in one. For the most part, it has parity though.
Benchmarks show there is nothing odd about the implementations, they are within 1ns of each other.
* Adds Dictionary serialization rule for codegen
* Adds Tidy for Dictionary. By default will remove key/value pairs where the key or value is either null or deleted. Only works for ISerializable keys or values (or both).
### Enabling Packet Logging
`[packetlogging on` and target the user.
Supports command modifiers such as:
`[online packetlogging on where accesslevel = player`
Logs are saved in `path/<ip address>/packets.log`. It is a simple append-format log with no date splitting.
* Now reads Prof.txt to get the professions
* The templated professions are based on profession `TrueName`
* Adds missing starting equipment
* Implements gargish starting equipment
* Consolidates some of the code
* Moves TC stuff to the TC file.
* Fixes some starting equipment that was wrong.
Note:
* Implementing the original T2A professions is possible on the client side, but requires moving the old clilocs to the current clilocs file. In the current file the entries are blank.
* Using the original LBR professions (they match AOS but without necromancy/chivalry) is kind of confusing because the profession indexes are ripped out of the UOTD/UOR ones and have non-sequential indexes. This will probably cause confusion and people will get no templated items when they select the wrong profession.
