itsRevela 42a582fb9f feat: add FourKit plugin host with dual server build
Adds the FourKit .NET 10 plugin host as a second dedicated server
build flavour alongside the existing vanilla server. Both flavours
build from the same source tree, with FourKit gated by the
MINECRAFT_SERVER_FOURKIT_BUILD preprocessor define.

Build layout:

  Minecraft.Server         vanilla, no plugin support, no .NET dep
  Minecraft.Server.FourKit FourKit-enabled, ships with bundled
                           .NET 10 self-contained runtime in runtime/
                           and an empty plugins/ folder

Both produce a Minecraft.Server.exe in their own per-target output
dir. The variant identity lives in the directory name, not the
binary name, so either flavour can be shipped as a drop-in.

Native bridge (Minecraft.Server/FourKit*.{cpp,h}):

* FourKitRuntime: hosts CoreCLR via hostfxr's command-line init API
  (the runtime-config API does not support self-contained components)
* FourKitBridge: ~50 Fire* event entry points, with inline no-op
  stubs for the standalone build so gameplay code can call them
  unconditionally
* FourKitNatives: ~80 native callbacks the managed side invokes
  for player/world/inventory mutations
* FourKitMappers: type and enum mapping helpers

Managed plugin host (Minecraft.Server.FourKit/):

* Bukkit-style API: Player, World, Block, Inventory, Command,
  Listener, EventHandler attribute, ~54 event classes
* PluginLoader with per-plugin AssemblyLoadContext
* FourKitHost as the [UnmanagedCallersOnly] entry point table
* Runtime resolves plugins relative to the host process so they
  always live next to Minecraft.Server.exe regardless of where the
  managed assembly itself is loaded from

Engine hooks (Minecraft.Client/, Minecraft.World/):

* Player lifecycle (PreLogin, Login, Join, Quit, Kick, Move,
  Teleport, Portal, Death) wired into PendingConnection and
  PlayerConnection without disturbing the cipher handshake or
  identity-token security flow
* Inventory open/click/drop hooks across every container menu type
* Block place/break/grow/burn/spread/from-to hooks across the
  full tile family
* Bed enter/leave, sign change, entity damage/death, ender pearl
  teleport hooks

Regression fixes preserved while applying donor diffs:

* ServerPlayer::die() retains the LCE-Revelations hardcore branch
  (setGameMode(ADVENTURE) + banPlayerForHardcoreDeath) in both the
  FourKit and non-FourKit code paths
* ServerLevel::entityAdded() retains the sub-entity ID reassignment
  loop required by the client's handleAddMob offset, fixing Ender
  Dragon and Wither boss multi-part hit detection
* LivingEntity::travel() retains the raw Player* cast and the
  cached frictionTile, both Revelations perf wins that the donor
  silently reverted
* ServerLogger.cpp keeps the file-logging code donor stripped
* PlayerList.cpp end portal transition fix and UIScene_EndPoem
  bounds-check are intact

Build system:

* Top-level CMakeLists.txt adds the Minecraft.Server.FourKit
  subdirectory and pulls in the new shared cmake/ServerTarget.cmake
  helper
* Minecraft.Server/cmake/sources/Common.cmake is now location
  independent (uses CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR) so the source list
  can be consumed from either server target's CMakeLists.txt
* The seven FourKit*.cpp/h files live in their own
  _MINECRAFT_SERVER_COMMON_SERVER_FOURKIT variable so the
  standalone target omits them
* configure-time .NET 10 SDK check fails fast with a clear
  download link if the SDK is missing
* global.json pins the SDK to 10.0.100 with latestFeature
  rollforward

Sample plugin (samples/HelloPlugin/) demonstrates the loader and
the PlayerJoinEvent listener pattern.

CI:

* nightly.yml builds both server flavours, ships
  LCE-Revelations-Server-Win64.zip and
  LCE-Revelations-Server-Win64-FourKit.zip, attests both, and
  updates release notes for the dual-flavour layout
* pull-request.yml pulls in actions/setup-dotnet so the FourKit
  publish step works in PR validation
* All zip artifacts and the client zip are renamed from
  LCREWindows64 to LCE-Revelations-{Client,Server}-Win64

Documentation:

* COMPILE.md gets a VS 2022 quick start, .NET 10 prereq section,
  server flavours explanation, and a troubleshooting section
* docs/FOURKIT_PORT_RECON.md captures the file-by-file recon that
  drove the port
* docs/FOURKIT_PARITY.md is the canonical reference for which
  events FourKit fires

Docker:

* docker-compose.dedicated-server.yml MC_RUNTIME_DIR default points
  at the vanilla CMake output. The FourKit Docker image is
  intentionally NOT shipped yet because hosting .NET 10 self
  contained inside Wine has not been smoke-tested

# FourKit Event Parity
Records which FourKit events ship in this build, mapped to the native hook sites that fire them. This document is the canonical reference for plugin authors: if an event is listed here, you can subscribe to it. Use the [donor reference](https://github.com/) for the upstream FourKit event catalog if you need a richer description of any specific event.
The Phase 1 reconnaissance showed that every donor hook-bearing source file in this repo was byte-identical to vanilla, so the donor's full set of hooks was applied to LCE-Revelations without policy-driven deferrals. Status is **PORTED** for everything below.
## Server lifecycle
| Event | Native hook site | Status |
|---|---|---|
| `FourKitBridge::Initialize` | `Minecraft.Server/Windows64/ServerMain.cpp` post-startup | PORTED |
| `FourKitBridge::Shutdown` | `Minecraft.Server/Windows64/ServerMain.cpp` early-shutdown | PORTED |
| `FireWorldSave` | `ServerMain.cpp` autosave trigger | PORTED |
## Player lifecycle
| Event | Native hook site | Status |
|---|---|---|
| `FirePlayerPreLogin` | `Minecraft.Client/PendingConnection.cpp::handlePreLogin` | PORTED |
| `FirePlayerLogin` (offline) | `Minecraft.Client/PendingConnection.cpp::handleLogin` | PORTED |
| `FirePlayerLogin` (online) | `Minecraft.Client/PendingConnection.cpp::handleAcceptedLogin` | PORTED |
| `FirePlayerJoin` | `Minecraft.Client/PlayerConnection.cpp::tick` (first-tick gated by `hasDoneFirstTickFourKit`) | PORTED |
| `FirePlayerKick` | `PlayerConnection.cpp::disconnect` | PORTED |
| `FirePlayerQuit` | `PlayerConnection.cpp::disconnect` and `onDisconnect` paths | PORTED |
| `UpdatePlayerEntityId` | Two `respawn(...)` sites in `PlayerConnection.cpp` | PORTED |
| `FirePlayerMove` | `PlayerConnection.cpp::handleMovePlayer` | PORTED |
## Player gameplay
| Event | Native hook site | Status |
|---|---|---|
| `FirePlayerChat` | `PlayerConnection.cpp::handleChat` | PORTED |
| `FireCommandPreprocess` | `PlayerConnection.cpp::handleCommand` | PORTED |
| `HandlePlayerCommand` | `PlayerConnection.cpp::handleCommand` | PORTED |
| `FirePlayerInteract` (USE_ITEM) | `handleUseItem` (face == 255) | PORTED |
| `FirePlayerInteract` (RIGHT_CLICK_BLOCK) | `handleUseItem` (face != 255) | PORTED |
| `FireBlockPlace` | `handleUseItem` post `useItemOn` | PORTED |
| `FirePlayerInteract` (LEFT_CLICK_BLOCK) | `handlePlayerAction::START_DESTROY_BLOCK` | PORTED |
| `FirePlayerInteract` (LEFT_CLICK_AIR) | `handleAnimate::SWING` | PORTED |
| `FirePlayerInteractEntity` | `handleInteract::INTERACT` (uses `MapEntityType`) | PORTED |
| `FirePlayerDropItem` | `handlePlayerAction::DROP_ITEM` and `DROP_ALL_ITEMS` | PORTED |
## Inventory
| Event | Native hook site | Status |
|---|---|---|
| `FireInventoryClick` | `PlayerConnection.cpp::handleContainerClick` | PORTED |
| `FireSignChange` | `PlayerConnection.cpp::handleSignUpdate` | PORTED |
## Block / world
The Phase 1 recon enumerated 17 hook-bearing files in `Minecraft.World/`. Each file was bulk-copied from the donor (all were vanilla in target). The hooks they contain cover:
| Source file | Hook category | Status |
|---|---|---|
| `AbstractContainerMenu.cpp` | Inventory open / interact | PORTED |
| `LivingEntity.cpp` | Entity damage, death | PORTED |
| `ItemEntity.cpp` | Item entity events | PORTED |
| `ThrownEnderpearl.cpp` | Teleport / portal | PORTED |
| `PistonBaseTile.cpp` | Block piston extend / retract | PORTED |
| `LiquidTileDynamic.cpp` | Block from-to (water / lava flow) | PORTED |
| `FireTile.cpp` | Block burn | PORTED |
| `GrassTile.cpp`, `Mushroom.cpp`, `Sapling.cpp` | Block spread / form | PORTED |
| `CactusTile.cpp`, `CocoaTile.cpp`, `CropTile.cpp`, `EggTile.cpp`, `NetherWartTile.cpp`, `ReedTile.cpp`, `StemTile.cpp` | Block grow | PORTED |
The exact `Fire*` calls inside each file match the donor verbatim.
## Console / commands
| Event | Native hook site | Status |
|---|---|---|
| `HandleConsoleCommand` | `Minecraft.Server/Console/ServerCliEngine.cpp` (unknown-command branch) | PORTED |
| `GetPluginCommandHelp` | `ServerCliEngine.cpp` (suggest-names branch) | PORTED |
## Native callback surface (C# → C++)
`FourKitNatives.cpp` was copied verbatim from the donor. All ~80 native callbacks (player damage / health / teleport / kick / ban, world tile get / set, inventory access, virtual containers, sound, explosion, etc.) are present. Phase 1 spot-checks confirmed signature compatibility against the engine APIs in this repo.
## Known gaps
None at the time of writing. If runtime testing in Phase 8 reveals an event that compiles but does not fire (e.g., the donor refactored the calling function in a way the recon missed), it will be added here as a deferred item.
## Out of scope (per the locked plan)
- Hot-reload (PluginLoadContext is non-collectible by design)
- Permission system
- Async / thread-safety hardening of the dispatcher
- New events beyond donor parity
- Managed unit tests for the API surface
