Landblock item saving + Much more

[Mag-nus]

• Server Shutdown

• Improved shutdown process.
• More status messages are sent to the logger
• The server now waits for database operations to complete

• Landblocks

• Fixed a bug where landblocks were loading equipped items as objects owned by the landblock (they're owned by the player, who in turn is owned by the landblock)
• Fixed a crash when trying to add a bad WO to the landblock

• WorldObject Decay

• Now controlled by the landblock
• WorldObject_Decay.cs added to manage decay of all decayable objects
• WorldObject_Database now has functions to determine what static objects and what dynamic objects should be saved to the shard

• WorldObject Database Persistence

• To/From player inventory actions no longer trigger database actions. Single database actions are costly
• Players are saved to the database on a per player 5 minute interval. This collects all of their items and saves them in parallel
• Landblocks save their items to the database on a per landblock 5 minute interval. This collects all of their items and saves them in parallel.
• Only items that do not exist in the database but should, or, exist and have changes are saved.
• Static objects like housing, etc.. should now properly save/restore as well

• WorldObject.Destroy

• Now destroys all contained items (if any exist)
• Now destroys all equipped items, (if any exist)

• Shard Database

• Fixed a bug when a biota was removed and then resaved to the db.

• Positions

• PositionType moved to the ACE.Entity.Enum.Properties folder, and set to a : ushort
• PositionType Ephemeral support aded.
• PositionType.Home set to Ephemeral

You will now see every item you've dropped in the past.

For a long time in ACE, items you've dropped on the landscape were saved to the database.
Just now though, do those items get restored to the landblock on server restart or landblock load.
In addition, only now do those items also start to decay.

Now, they will decay normally and disappear and be removed from the database.

Expected behavior
