fix(ui): preserve retail item titles and spacing

Carry PublicWeenieDesc material type into the live object model so examination titles use the DAT-authored material prefix. Preserve retail AddItemInfo empty appends and embedded armor separator, restoring the deliberate blank rows between appraisal sections.

 character detail, and creature FontInfo state; the connected item visual is
 the remaining acceptance gate.
 
+The next connected boots comparison exposed two final shared-path omissions.
+CreateObject walked past `PublicWeenieDesc.MaterialType`, so
+`ACCWeenieObject::GetObjectName(NAME_APPROPRIATE)` could not decorate the
+authored base name, and the retained report builder discarded empty strings
+even though retail `AddItemInfo` still appends their separator. Material type
+now survives CreateObject -> EntitySpawn -> WeenieData -> ClientObject and the
+DAT resolver prefixes it exactly once. Empty append fragments now preserve
+retail's intentional blank section rows, including the blank after
+Workmanship and the literal leading newline before Armor Level.
