## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->

Pull strategy migration from cmangos for tank specializations

## How to Test the Changes
<!--
- Step-by-step instructions to test the change.

configuration).
- Expected behavior and how to verify it.
-->

1. Invite bot tank
2. Use `reset boAI` or `nc +pull,+pull back` + `co +pull,+pull back`
3. Order bot to pull using command `pull my target` or `pull rti target`
4. Bot should run to mob, use ranged skill and back to point where he
started pull
Without `pull back` strategy bot run to mob, use ranged skill and wait
on mob until he come to bot

TRANSLATIONS:
Anything new that the bots say in chat must be in a translatable format.
This is done using GetBotTextOrDefault,
which you can search for in the codebase to find examples. Your code
needs to have English as the default fallback,

Enable bots to do Outdoor pvp (#2217)
## Pull Request Description
Bots will now engage with outdoor pvp targets when in an area with them.
I carved this out of the guildrpg system Im working on since it should
work just fine as a standalone. Note this requires a core update
https://github.com/azerothcore/azerothcore-wotlk/pull/25103

## Feature Evaluation

Its not expensive. the status checks are fairly light and simple. Should
be on par with current rpg system actions

## How to Test the Changes

You can try to use selfbot to enable this while in EPL, or set the
probability of all other rpg actions to 0.

## Pull Request Description
<!-- Describe what this change does and why it is needed -->

**Note for reviewers**: The Rogue files are very confusing, so for
background, there is DpsRogueStrategy, which is for all Rogues and
represented by the “dps” strategy in game, and there is also
AssassinationRogueStrategy, which is for Assassination and Subtlety
specs and represented by the “melee” strategy in game. So Combat has
only the dps strategy, while Assassination and Subtlety have the dps and
melee strategies.
- The main focus of this PR is to fix an issue with Assassination Rogues
that caused them to use Eviscerate instead of Envenom about 1/3 of the
time they should have been using Envenom, which was significantly
reducing their DPS. See the bottom of this post for an explanation for
why this was happening and why the fix works. Well, LMK if you think
it's wrong, but this is how I am understanding things, and my
back-of-the-envelope math (also below) supports it.

- After this PR, Assassination Rogues will use Eviscerate only if they
are unable to use Envenom (don't have the ability learned or no Deadly
Poison on the target) or if they don’t have Rank 3 in Master Poisoner.

- Additionally, Assassination Rogues previously would use
Envenom/Eviscerate at 3 or more combo points. This is suboptimal so I
created a new “combo points 4 available” trigger that will fire at 4 or
5 combo points only. They will still use the finisher at 3 combo points
if the mob is almost dead (via the existing “target with combo points
almost dead” trigger).

- I then added Cold Blood, which Rogues previously would not use at all.
Now there is a ColdBloodAction(), and Cold Blood is used when a Rogue
has at least 4 combo points, right before using Envenom (or Eviscerate).
I implemented it as a standard BuffTrigger so they’ll just use the
ability off cooldown.

- While looking at the combo point triggers, I thought it was confusing
that the “combo points available” trigger actually meant 5 combo points
(presumably because the default parameter for combo points in
ComboPointsAvailableTrigger() is 5). I changed the string to “combo
points 5 available” so it’s less confusing going forward. This
necessitated some changes in the Druid files too.

- Next, I cleaned up DpsRogueStrategy a bit. Not a lot to say, just some
duplicative or useless logic was removed. There shouldn’t be any impact
on gameplay from the changes.

- In the process of making the edits in the Druid files, I noticed that
the trigger for Tiger’s Fury in OffhealDruidCatStrategy was “low
energy,” which does not exist (there is a “light energy available,” but
the EnergyAvailable triggers are for when energy is AT LEAST the
designated level, not AT MOST the designated level). So I replaced the
trigger with the already-existing “tiger’s fury” trigger, which I think
is just a generic BuffTrigger so I don’t actually know why it exists
(i.e., Druid will use the spell off cooldown). But this particular
change is just a quick fix and not intended to be thoughtful (that would
be outside the scope of this PR).


## Feature Evaluation
<!--
If your PR is very minimal (comment typo, wrong ID reference, etc), and
it is very obvious it will not have
any impact on performance, you may skip these question. If necessary, a
maintainer may ask you for them later.
-->

<!-- Please answer the following: -->
- Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended
behavior.
- Describe the **processing cost** when this logic executes across many
bots.

There should be no relevant impact on performance. This PR adds one new
action triggered by the standard BuffTrigger. Otherwise, these are just
fixes to existing logic.

## How to Test the Changes
<!--
- Step-by-step instructions to test the change.
- Any required setup (e.g. multiple players, number of bots, specific
configuration).
- Expected behavior and how to verify it.
-->

The easiest way to test is to fight a boss that doesn't tend to result
in downtime (since downtime can lead to the loss of deadly poison
stacks, in which case Eviscerate will (and should be) used by
Assassination Rogues). You can use a damage meter such as Skada to track
ability use. You should see:
- Assassination Rogues don't use Eviscerate at all, or very few times.
- Assassination Rogues use Cold Blood.
- Offheal Cat Druids use Tiger's Fury.
- Otherwise, Rogue and Cat Druid behavior should remain the same.

## Notes for Reviewers
<!-- Anything else that's helpful to review or test your pull request.
-->

The reason for why Assassination Rogues were using Eviscerate so
frequently is due to the fact that Envenom and Eviscerate were part of
the same TriggerNode. When actions are part of the same TriggerNode,
they're processed together, and the actions are queued by priority. When
the higher-priority action is executed, the lower-priority action is not
cleared--it remains in the queue for expireActionTime from the config,
which is 5 seconds by default. Then, as soon as the lower-priority
action can be executed (without regard for triggers because it is
already triggered, just sitting in the queue), it will execute.

This pattern of code works fine ingame if (1) you are actually trying to
queue actions, like what I did with Cold Blood -> Envenom, (2) there are
other guards like IsUseful() and IsPossible() that keep unwanted actions
from executing, or (3) the trigger is just constantly firing so the
higher-priority action is always evaluated. But TriggerNode isn't really
the right way to implement action priority--that's through ActionNode.
AssassinationRogueStrategy had Envenom and Eviscerate in the same
TriggerNode, and then the corresponding ActionNode had Rupture as a
fallback. Now, I changed it so Eviscerate is instead a fallback in the
Envenom ActionNode (and Rupture is removed entirely because
Assassination Rogues just shouldn't be using it, except maybe on very
high-armor targets that are immune to poison, but that is very niche).

~

I did some back-of-the-envelope math to check this pattern. Say we're in
a situation where Deadly Poison is up so ideally the Rogue should use
Envenom 100% of the time. Through the old system, what would happen when
the trigger fired?
- Rogue uses Envenom since it's the higher-priority action.
- Due to the Ruthlessness talent, Rogue has a 60% chance of having 1
combo point after the finisher, 40% chance of 0 combo points. If it has
1 combo point, it uses Eviscerate immediately.
- If it has 0 combo points, it uses Mutilate. Mutilate grants 2 combo
points, unless it crits, in which case it grants 3 due to Seal Fate. If
Mutilate doesn't crit, the Rogue has 2 combo points, and it uses
Eviscerate. If Mutilate does crit, the Rogue has 3 combo points, and it
uses Envenom.
- So let's assume Mutilate has a 55% crit chance (very reasonable for a
Rogue in entry-level raid gear with raid buffs due to Opportunity giving
+20% crit chance to Mutilate). Mutilate hits twice, and if either hit
crits, Seal Fate Procs. The chance of at least one crit with two hits at
a 55% crit chance is ~80%. That means if Ruthlessness doesn't give a
combo point, there is an 80% chance that Envenom will be used and a 20%
chance that Eviscerate will be used.
- Combine the above, and the result of one trigger firing is you get 1
guaranteed Envenom + 0.6 Eviscerates (Ruthlessness proc path) + 0.32
Envenoms (No Ruthlessness proc but Seal Fate proc path) + 0.08
Eviscerates (No Ruthlessness proc and no Seal Fate proc path) = 1.32
Envenoms to each 0.68 Eviscerates, or a 1.94:1 ratio of Envenoms to
Eviscerates. That is basically identical to what I saw in practice of
roughly a 2:1 ratio of Envenoms to Eviscerates.
- I understand the above is simplistic and it assumes that the Rogue
gets a combo point within 5 seconds following using Envenom (very
likely) and that there are not two opportunities to use Envenom or
Eviscerate in the 5-second queue period after using Envenom (it can
happen but is uncommon). That's all at the margins and isn't going to
impact the math very much.
