Fix/talent tree ordered map (#2222)
Fixes #2050

InitTalents builds a map of talentRow → [TalentEntry*] and iterates it
to teach talents row by row. WoW's talent system requires each row to be
filled before unlocking the next, so iteration must happen in ascending
row order. Commit
b474dc4 ("Performance optim") changed the container from std::map to
std::unordered_map, which has no guaranteed key ordering. As a result,
bots would frequently attempt to learn talents in a row whose
prerequisites hadn't been met
  yet, silently skipping them. I belive it's the reason of #2050 issue.

The fix is a one-character type change: restoring std::map<uint32, ...>,
which guarantees ascending key (row) order.

  How to Test the Changes

   1. Make fresh installation
   2. Create new character
   3. Observe talents tree of fresh rnd bots
  

  Was AI assistance used while working on this change?

- [X] Yes — GitHub Copilot CLI was used to identify the root cause
(unordered_map introduced in b474dc4 breaking talent row ordering),
stage the one-line fix, and draft this PR description. The code change
was reviewed and fully
  understood before submission.

Root cause commit: b474dc44bb6323430a84fc17c1ec046f9919a101
("Performance optim") — changed std::map to std::unordered_map in
InitTalents, breaking the row-ordering guarantee that WoW's talent
prerequisite system depends on.

Add Sense Undead for Paladins (#2200)
# Pull Request

This PR adds the sense undead ability for Paladins, which they will keep
active at all times. This is mildly useful because the associated minor
glyph provides a 1% damage increase against undead while the ability is
active.

Sense undead is also added to InitClassSpells(). I understand that it is
a trainer spell so would normally be covered by InitAvailableSpells(),
but those playing with mod-individual-progression will not receive the
spell through InitAvailableSpells() because it is removed from trainers
by the mod (in TBC, a quest was required to obtain the spell).

Finally, the minor glyph of sense undead is now added to the config as a
default glyph for all PvE specs. It is not added for PvP specs because
Forsaken do not count as undead so the glyph is useless in PvP. I also
made some other tweaks to Paladin default minor glyphs that are not
worth spending any time talking about.

Edit: I also did some minor reformatting of code and replaced some
numbers with existing constants.

## Design Philosophy

We prioritize **stability, performance, and predictability** over
behavioral realism.
Complex player-mimicking logic is intentionally limited due to its
negative impact on scalability, maintainability, and
long-term robustness.

Excessive processing overhead can lead to server hiccups, increased CPU
usage, and degraded performance for all
participants. Because every action and
decision tree is executed **per bot and per trigger**, even small
increases in logic complexity can scale poorly and
negatively affect both players and
world (random) bots. Bots are not expected to behave perfectly, and
perfect simulation of human decision-making is not a
project goal. Increased behavioral
realism often introduces disproportionate cost, reduced predictability,
and significantly higher maintenance overhead.

Every additional branch of logic increases long-term responsibility. All
decision paths must be tested, validated, and
maintained continuously as the system evolves.
If advanced or AI-intensive behavior is introduced, the **default
configuration must remain the lightweight decision
model**. More complex behavior should only be
available as an **explicit opt-in option**, clearly documented as having
a measurable performance cost.

Principles:

- **Stability before intelligence**  
  A stable system is always preferred over a smarter one.

- **Performance is a shared resource**  
  Any increase in bot cost affects all players and all bots.

- **Simple logic scales better than smart logic**  
Predictable behavior under load is more valuable than perfect decisions.

- **Complexity must justify itself**  
  If a feature cannot clearly explain its cost, it should not exist.

- **Defaults must be cheap**  
  Expensive behavior must always be optional and clearly communicated.

- **Bots should look reasonable, not perfect**  
  The goal is believable behavior, not human simulation.

Before submitting, confirm that this change aligns with those
principles.

## Feature Evaluation

Please answer the following:

- Describe the **minimum logic** required to achieve the intended
behavior?
- Describe the **cheapest implementation** that produces an acceptable
result?
- Describe the **runtime cost** when this logic executes across many
bots?

The implementation just checks if a Paladin has the sense undead aura,
and if not, the Paladin will activate sense undead. It is simple and
cheap.

## How to Test the Changes

- Step-by-step instructions to test the change
- Any required setup (e.g. multiple players, bots, specific
configuration)
- Expected behavior and how to verify it

## Complexity & Impact

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

Does this change increase per-bot or per-tick processing?
- - [ ] No
- - [x] Yes (**describe and justify impact**)

Infinitesimally 

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

## Defaults & Configuration

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

Paladin bots will by default have sense undead enabled. There is no
disadvantage to this.

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

- - [ ] Yes (**explain below**)

If yes, please specify:

- AI tool or model used (e.g. ChatGPT, GPT-4, Claude, etc.)
- Purpose of usage (e.g. brainstorming, refactoring, documentation, code
generation)

AI assistance is allowed, but all submitted code must be fully
understood, reviewed, and owned by the contributor.
Any AI-influenced changes must be verified against existing CORE and PB
logic. We expect contributors to be honest
about what they do and do not understand.

---

## 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.

Fix: WLK shaman totem quest vs relic totems: avoid keeping 4 totem items when relic exists #2119 (#2197)
## Summary
* Detects shaman relics (relic type, totem subclass) in bags/equipment.
* Skips adding the four classic totem items (5175–5178) when a relic
exists.
* Cleans up any existing totem items from bags/equipment/bank when a
relic exists, while keeping Ankh handling intact.
## Test plan
Verified manually (local environment).
