Alex Dcnh ba835250c8 New whisper command "pvp stats" that allows players to ask a bot to report its current Arena Points, Honor Points, and Arena Teams (#2071)
# Pull Request

This PR adds a new whisper command "pvp stats" that allows players to
ask a bot to report its current Arena Points, Honor Points, and Arena
Teams (name and team rating).

Reason:
Due to a client limitation in WoW 3.3.5a, the inspection window does not
display another player's Arena or Honor points , only team data.
This command provides an easy in-game way to check a bot’s PvP
currencies without modifying the client or core packets.

---

## Design Philosophy

Uses existing core getters (GetArenaPoints, GetHonorPoints,
GetArenaTeamId, etc.).
Fully integrated into the chat command system (ChatTriggerContext,
ChatActionContext).
Safe, no gameplay changes, purely informational.
No harcoded texts, use database local instead

## How to Test the Changes

/w BotName pvp stats

Bot reply:

[PVP] Arena Points: 302 | Honor Points: 11855
[PVP] 2v2: <The Fighters> (rating 2000)
[PVP] 3v3: <The Trio> (rating 573)

## Complexity & Impact

- Does this change add new decision branches?
    - [x] No
    - [ ] Yes (**explain below**)

- Does this change increase per-bot or per-tick processing?
    - [x] No
    - [ ] Yes (**describe and justify impact**)

- 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:

- [x] 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?
    - [x] No
    - [ ] Yes (**explain below**)

---

## Final Checklist

- [x] Stability is not compromised
- [x] Performance impact is understood, tested, and acceptable
- [x] Added logic complexity is justified and explained
- [x] Documentation updated if needed

## Notes for Reviewers

Anything that significantly improves realism at the cost of stability or
performance should be carefully discussed
before merging.

NEW MODULE - SQL BEST PRACTICES

Create a new table

Example:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `table`(
  `id` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL,
  `column` smallint(6) unsigned,
  `active` BOOLEAN DEFAULT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

Boolean datatype in mysql: Use TinyInt(1) or Boolean (this is the same thing)

bit(1) can also work, but it may require a syntax like b'(0) and b'(1) when inserting (not sure).

If there are multiple booleans in the same table, bit(1) is better, otherwise it's the same result.

Rules

  • Use InnoDB as engine for dynamic tables (most likely in the auth and characters databases).
  • Use MyISAM for read-only tables (in world database), but if you're not sure, just use innoDB.
  • Use utf8 as charset.
