fix(streaming): #138 — re-hydrate server objects from the retained spawn table on reload

Doors/NPCs/portals vanished after a portal OUT of the 0x0007 dungeon back
to Holtburg. Root cause confirmed via ACE + holtburger cross-reference:
the dungeon collapse drops a landblock's render entities for FPS, and ACE
will NOT re-broadcast objects whose guid is still in its per-player
KnownObjects set (never cleared on a normal teleport — ACE relies on the
client retaining its object table and culling stale objects itself). So
nothing restored them on the way back.

Retail-faithful fix: a real client keeps its weenie_object_table and
re-renders the world from it (holtburger keeps the table across a
teleport; only suspends physics bodies). acdream's _lastSpawnByGuid (the
parsed CreateObject records — position + Setup + appearance) IS that
table and survives the collapse (the collapse path never calls
RemoveLiveEntityByServerGuid, the only thing that prunes it). On landblock
(re)load, replay OnLiveEntitySpawnedLocked for retained spawns whose
render entity is absent — independent of any ACE re-send.

- LandblockEntityRehydrator: pure selection (landblock match; skip
  already-present, the player, and mesh-less spawns), unit-tested (7).
- StreamingController: onLandblockLoaded callback after AddLandblock
  (Loaded = dungeon-exit expand) and AddEntitiesToExistingLandblock
  (Promoted = Far->Near).
- GameWindow.RehydrateServerEntitiesForLandblock: present-gate keys on
  GpuWorldState (NOT _entitiesByServerGuid, which holds collapse
  orphans), replay under _datLock; the replay's own
  RemoveLiveEntityByServerGuid de-dup scrubs the orphan state.

Corrects the handoff: ClientObjectTable is inventory-only (no world
position/Setup) and cannot rebuild a render entity; _lastSpawnByGuid is
the world-object table. Register row AP-48 (no retail 25s visibility
cull). dotnet build + 1518 Core tests green.

| AP-46 | Health-meter gate approximation: retail shows the health meter for `IsPlayer() || pet_owner || ClientCombatSystem::ObjectIsAttackable()` (full PK/faction logic); acdream's `GameWindow.IsHealthBarTarget` uses the server PWD bits `BF_ATTACKABLE (0x10)` OR `BF_PLAYER (0x8)` | `src/AcDream.App/Rendering/GameWindow.cs` (`IsHealthBarTarget`) → `SelectedObjectController` | The PWD `BF_ATTACKABLE`/`BF_PLAYER` bits distinguish monsters + players (bar) from friendly/vendor NPCs (name-only) for the M1.5 dev loop; the pet case and the full ObjectIsAttackable PK/faction refinement (free-PK, PK-vs-PK, PKLite) are not ported | A PK/faction edge (e.g. a hostile-flagged player whose `BF_ATTACKABLE` is unset, or a pet) could show/hide the bar where retail differs — no impact on the non-PK PvE dev loop | `ClientCombatSystem::ObjectIsAttackable` acclient_2013_pseudo_c.txt:375385; `BF_ATTACKABLE` acclient.h:6437 |
| AP-44 | Server-spawned weenie fixtures (lanterns, braziers, glowing items carrying `Setup.Lights`) register their lights at their SPAWN-frame world position via `RegisterOwnedLight` in `OnLiveEntitySpawnedLocked` (mirroring the dat-static path in `ApplyLoadedTerrainLocked`); the light does NOT follow the object if it later moves. Torn down on despawn/respawn by the now-unconditional `UnregisterOwner` in `RemoveLiveEntityByServerGuid`. | `src/AcDream.App/Rendering/GameWindow.cs` (`OnLiveEntitySpawnedLocked` weenie-light block; `RemoveLiveEntityByServerGuid`) | Closes the prior gap where ONLY dat-baked statics registered lights, so server-placed lanterns cast nothing; the overwhelming majority of light-bearing weenies (wall lanterns, braziers, candelabra) are stationary, so spawn-frame placement matches retail; retail's `add_dynamic_light` re-places the light from the object frame each frame | A moving light-bearing weenie (e.g. a torch-carrying NPC) leaves its light at the spawn position instead of following — rare; the faithful fix is to re-place on `OnLivePositionUpdated` | retail object-borne lights `insert_light` 0x0054d1b0 / `add_dynamic_light` 0x0054d420 (per-frame object frame) |
| AP-47 | acdream keeps the 128 nearest-to-CAMERA point lights live (`MaxGlobalLights=128`, `BuildPointLightSnapshot`) and selects per cell CAMERA-INDEPENDENTLY (by the cell's own bounds), so a building interior stays lit at any distance within a town; retail keeps only the 40 nearest-to-PLAYER static lights (`Render::max_static_lights=0x28`, distance-sorted replace-farthest `insert_light`) and re-bakes a cell when its live light set changes, so distant interiors are baked dark and "light up" only as the player approaches and their torches enter the live 40. INTENTIONAL — acdream's always-lit interiors are the preferred behavior (no 1999-era light-budget pop-in); user-confirmed 2026-06-20. | `src/AcDream.Core/Lighting/LightManager.cs` (`MaxGlobalLights=128`, `BuildPointLightSnapshot`, `SelectForObject`) | The retail pop-in is a fixed-function light-budget artifact, not an intended aesthetic; revert to retail by clamping the global set to 40 + distance-to-player sort if ever desired | Distant town interiors are lit in acdream where retail's are dark until approached — a deliberate, user-preferred divergence | `Render::max_static_lights` 0x28; `insert_light` 0x0054d1b0 (distance-sorted, replace-farthest); bake re-trigger `SetStaticLightingVertexColors` cache `burnedInStaticLights != num_static_lights` |
| AP-48 | On a landblock (re)load, acdream re-projects its retained server-object spawns (`GameWindow._lastSpawnByGuid` — our `weenie_object_table` for world objects, carrying position + Setup + appearance) into the render world via `LandblockEntityRehydrator`. The dungeon collapse (#133/#135) and Near→Far demote drop a landblock's RENDER entities for FPS but keep the parsed spawns; ACE will NOT re-broadcast objects whose guid is still in its per-player `KnownObjects` set (never cleared on a normal teleport — ACE relies on the client retaining its table + doing its own visibility cull). Re-projecting from our own table is the retail "client keeps its weenie_object_table and re-renders from it" model. DIVERGENCE: acdream has NO retail 25 s / 384 m visibility cull — the retained spawn table is pruned ONLY by an explicit server `DeleteObject` (0xF747) or a spawn de-dup, never by distance/time. (#138) | `src/AcDream.App/Streaming/LandblockEntityRehydrator.cs` + `GameWindow.RehydrateServerEntitiesForLandblock` + `StreamingController` (`onLandblockLoaded`, Loaded + Promoted) | Re-projection from our own table is retail-faithful AND the only reliable path (ACE won't re-send a known object); fixes the #138 "doors/NPCs/portals gone after a dungeon exit" symptom independent of any server re-broadcast | An object the server silently stopped tracking WITHOUT a `DeleteObject` (e.g. a creature that wandered out of PVS) is re-hydrated at its last-known position on reload, where retail's 25 s cull would have dropped it — a stale ghost until a real `DeleteObject` or the next session. Close it by porting holtburger's 25 s/384 m `ACE_DESTRUCTION_TIMEOUT` self-cull | ACE `ObjectMaint.KnownObjects` never cleared on teleport (`Physics/Common/ObjectMaint.cs`, `WorldObjects/Player_Tracking.cs`); holtburger client 25 s cull `liveness.rs` `ACE_DESTRUCTION_TIMEOUT_SECS`; retail client weenie_object_table re-render |
