Fix rest of trainers' related stuff + codestyle changes and corrections (#2104)
# Pull Request

* Fix the rest of the trainer-related functionality: list spells and
learn (cast vs. direct learn) spells.
* Rewrite `TrainerAction`: split the logic between appropriate methods
(`GetTarget`, `isUseful`, `isPossible`) instead of pushing everything
inside a single `Execute` method.
* Change method definitions to remove unnecessary declarations and
parameters overhead.
* Move the `Trainer` header into the implementation. Rewrite
`RpgTrainTrigger` to fit the original logic and move all validation to
`RpgTrainAction` (`isUseful` + `isPossible`).
* Implement "can train" context value calculation to use with
`RpgTrainTrigger`.
* Update and optimize "train cost" context value calculation -- it
should be much faster.
* Replace `AiPlayerbot.AutoTrainSpells` with
`AiPlayerbot.AllowLearnTrainerSpells` and remove the "free" value
behavior — please use `AiPlayerbot.BotCheats` if you want bots to learn
trainer's spells for "free".
* Add `nullptr` checks wherever necessary (only inside targeted
methods/functions).
* Make some codestyle changes and corrections based on the AC codestyle
guide.

## 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.

## How to Test the Changes

Force bots to learn spells from trainers using the chat command `trainer
learn` or `trainer learn <spellId>`. Bots should properly list available
spells (`trainer` command) or learn them (based on configuration and
command).

Warnings PR 1: Event warnings and headers (#2106)
# Pull Request

This is the first in a series of PRs intended to eliminate warnings in
the module. The design intent is to eliminate the calling event when not
needed in the body of the function. Based off of SmashingQuasars work.

Stage1 refactor world position method names (#2126)
# Pull Request

This change replaces the non‑standard
WorldPosition::getX/getY/getZ/getO/getMapId wrappers with the core
getters (GetPositionX/Y/Z, GetOrientation, GetMapId) and removes the
redundant wrappers.
Goal: align the module with AzerothCore conventions, reduce local
adapters, and improve long‑term maintainability.

---

## Design Philosophy

This is a structural cleanup only (coordinate access) and does not alter
any AI behavior or decision logic.
It follows the stability/performance-first philosophy and does not add
branches or extra runtime work.

Before submitting: yes, this change aligns with the principles of
stability, performance, and predictability.

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:

- Minimum logic required: use core getters (GetPositionX/Y/Z, GetMapId,
GetOrientation) wherever coordinates are needed.
- Cheapest implementation: direct call replacement and removal of
redundant wrappers.
- Runtime cost: negligible (same data access, no additional logic).

---

## How to Test the Changes

- No functional testing required (behavior‑neutral refactor).
- Recommended: compile the module and run a normal server startup as
validation.

Refactor newrpginfo data union to std::variant (#2079)
# Pull Request

As I began modifying the newrpginfo to change the types of data it
stored, or add new data I found myself with the issue of ending up
either with garbage memory if the information wasnt properly stored on
status change, or needing complicated destructor patterns for non
trivial data sets.

---

## Design Philosophy

Make rpginfo able to handle more complicated information in a strongly 

---

## Feature Evaluation

No Feature changes

---

## How to Test the Changes

-  Server should be stable for an extended period of time. 
- Bots should be able to complete quests, fly, etc as they did before.

## 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**)
Potentially as there can be more memory involved in the object.

- 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:

- [ ] 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**)

If yes, please specify:

- Gemini suggested the use of std::variant as an alternative data
structure. I found additinal external references that correlated with
the same suggestion of moving away from a union.
- Implementation was performed manually with Co-pilot auto-complete

---

## Final Checklist 
In progress.
- [ ] Stability is not compromised
- [ ] Performance impact is understood, tested, and acceptable
- [ ] Added logic complexity is justified and explained
- [ ] Documentation updated if needed

## Notes for Reviewers

Im not 100% sure if this is a good design choice. There are some things
I didnt quite like by the end of this, specifically having to double
check whenever accessing data whether exists or not even though an
action has already been triggered. But I have a PR in the works where I
want to store a full flight path vector, and the union was giving me
issues. (It appears that state changes may be occuring in the same tick
between RPG status update and the stated action, leading to incorrect
data gathering.

I ended up solving it by first checking a pointer to the object, and
then getting the reference.
```c++
    auto* dataPtr = std::get_if<NewRpgInfo::DoQuest>(&info.data);
    if (!dataPtr)
        return false;
    auto& data = *dataPtr;
```

Create Flightmastercache to handle finding the nearest flight master. (#1979)
Refactor the flightmastercache the bots use for finding the nearest
available flight master.

I made a small change to how the original function worked by storing the
database position for the flightmaster in the cache itself. This allows
us to calculate the distance from bot before accessing the creature
object, should be faster overall.
