Focus heal targets strategy migration (#2254)
<!--
Thank you for contributing to mod-playerbots, please make sure that
you...
1. Submit your PR to the test-staging branch, not master.
2. Read the guidelines below before submitting.
3. Don't delete parts of this template.

DESIGN PHILOSOPHY: We prioritize STABILITY, PERFORMANCE, AND
PREDICTABILITY over behavioral realism.

Every action and decision executes PER BOT AND PER TRIGGER. Small
increases in logic complexity scale
poorly across thousands of bots and negatively affect all. We prioritize
a stable system over a smarter
one. Bots don't need to behave perfectly; believable behavior is the
goal, not human simulation.
Default behavior must be cheap in processing; expensive behavior must be
opt-in.

Before submitting, make sure your changes aligns with these principles.

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

Migration for "focus heal targets" strategy which order healer to focus
only on specified targets

Commands:
`nc +focus heal targets`
`co +focus heal targets`
`focus heal +botName`
`focus heal -botName`
`focus heal ?`

## 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.
-->

- create bots party with at least one healer
- apply to healer strategy
- order healer focus on single bot
- start fight (for example with dummy)
- use `.damage 10000` to bots a watch which are healed directly and
which one only via aoe healing

## Impact Assessment
<!-- As a generic test, before and after measure of pmon (playerbot pmon
tick) can help you here. -->
- Does this change increase per-bot/per-tick processing or risk scaling
poorly with thousands of bots?
    - - [x] No, not at all
    - - [ ] Minimal impact (**explain below**)
    - - [ ] Moderate impact (**explain below**)

## Messages to Translate
<!--
Bot messages have to be translatable, but you don't need to do the
translations here. You only need to make sure
the message is in a translatable format, and list in the table the
message_key and the default English message.
Search for GetBotTextOrDefault in the codebase for examples.

From tests:

Its optional strategy mostly for raiders then performance is not a
issue.

Wait for attack strategy migration (#2211)
## Pull Request Description
Migration of "wait for attack" strategy from cmangos playerbots.

Resolves: https://github.com/mod-playerbots/mod-playerbots/issues/990

## Feature Evaluation
Optional strategy for bots which are in party with real player. 

## How to Test the Changes
- add strategy to bot "nc +wait for attack" and "co +wait for attack"
- set time via command "wait for attack time x" where x is time which
they wait in seconds (you should get response from bot)
- attack any target (for example dummy in main city)(bot should wait
with attack)

## Impact Assessment
    - [ ] No, not at all
    - [x] Minimal impact (**explain below**)
    - [ ] Moderate impact (**explain below**)

Performance wise only bots having this optinal strategy have additional
cost in multiplier which check every attack action that should be
execute.

- Does this change modify default bot behavior?
    - [x] No
    - [ ] Yes (**explain why**)



- Does this change add new decision branches or increase maintenance
complexity?
    - [x] No
    - [ ] Yes (**explain below**)



## Messages to Translate
Does this change add bot messages to translate?
- [ ] No
- [x] Yes (**list messages in the table**)

| Message key  | Default message |
| --------------- | ------------------ |
1740 | Please provide a time to set (in seconds)
1741 | Please provide valid time to set (in seconds) between 0 and 99
1742 | Wait for attack time set to %new_time seconds

Add aggressive non combat targeting strategy (#2117)
# Pull Request

Tired of failing that escort quest because your bots stood and watched
while the escort npc got swarmed and killed?
Tired of your bots standing around doing nothing while the npc you are
supposed to be guarding for 5 minutes is getting attacked?
Don't want to use the grind strategy because it is too heavy-handed and
has too many restrictions?

Look no further! Just do "nc +aggressive" and your bots will pick a
fight with anything they can in a 30 yard radius.

The aggressive targetting is a stripped down version of the grind
target.

## Feature Evaluation

Please answer the following:

- Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended
behavior?
Add a strategy, action, and targetting that will cause bots to attack
nearby enemies when out of combat.

- Describe the **cheapest implementation** that produces an acceptable
result?
Hopefully this is the cheapest.

- Describe the **runtime cost** when this logic executes across many
bots?
Minimal runtime cost as this strategy needs to be added specifically to
bots.

---

## How to Test the Changes

- Add a bot to party, or use selfbot
- Give them the aggressive strategy via "nc +aggressive"
- They should attack anything within 30 yards.
- If it is a bot with a master, the 30 yards should be centered around
the master not the bot (prevent chaining from enemy to enemy)

## Complexity & Impact

Does this change add new decision branches?
```
[] No
[x] Yes (**explain below**)
Only for bots that have the added strategy, adds decision to attack nearby targets when out of combat.
```

Does this change increase per-bot or per-tick processing?
```
[] No
[x] Yes (**describe and justify impact**)
Minimal increase to only bots that have this strategy added.
```

Could this logic scale poorly under load?
```
[x] No
[ ] Yes (**explain why**)
```
---

## Defaults & Configuration

Does this change modify default bot behavior?
```
[x] No
[ ] Yes (**explain why**)
```

If this introduces more advanced or AI-heavy logic:
```
[x] Lightweight mode remains the default
[ ] More complex behavior is optional and thereby configurable
```

## AI Assistance

Was AI assistance (e.g. ChatGPT or similar tools) used while working on
this change?
```
[ ] No
[x] Yes (**explain below**)
```
Claude is used to explore the codebase to find similar implementations
to be used for examples.

## Final Checklist

- [x] Stability is not compromised
- [x] Performance impact is understood, tested, and acceptable
- [x] Added logic complexity is justified and explained
- [x] Documentation updated if needed

---

## Notes for Reviewers

Anything that significantly improves realism at the cost of stability or
performance should be carefully discussed
before merging.
