Nothing in the server writes or reads a packet by hand any more, so the
helpers for doing so go:
- CBITSTREAM, CMSGHEADER, CINSTREAM, CINSTREAM_SKIP_HEADER, SEND_PACKET,
SEND_PACKET_BROADCAST and HEADER_SIZE leave dCommonVars.h;
- the free BitStreamUtils::WriteHeader (LUBitStream::WriteHeader writes the
same bytes) and the unused PacketUtils::SavePacket are deleted.
The last raw reads are replaced: WorldServer builds its input stream
directly, the master packet logs read the header with
LUBitStream::ReadHeader instead of peeking at packet->data[1] and [3], and
MessageInspector reads a sent game message's header with the new
NetGameMsg::ReadPacketHeader (the counterpart of WritePacket) instead of
memcmp/memcpy. packet->data[0] is still compared with RakNet's own
connection IDs.
The frozen oracles keep using the macros verbatim through the test-only
tests/dGameTests/LegacyPacketMacros.h; the HeaderSkip tests, which only
tested CINSTREAM_SKIP_HEADER, are removed.
docs/PacketArchitecture.md: "where we are" now describes the final state
and what still touches raw bytes (RakNet IDs, replica headers, behavior bit
streams), and a new section collects the known wire discrepancies found
during the conversion, with client addresses.

Converts ActivityEnter, ActivityExit, ActivityStart, ActivityStop,
ActivityPause, StartActivityTime, RequestActivityEnter,
RequestActivityExit and ShowActivityCountdown to NetGameMsgs in
ActivityMessages.{h,cpp}, switches their callers (racing, shooting
gallery, survival, waves, AG course, NT combat challenge) and deletes
the old GameMessages::Send* / HandleRequestActivityExit functions.
REQUEST_ACTIVITY_EXIT is registered in GameMessageHandler's map.
No wire change. Verified by comparing every struct byte for byte with a
frozen verbatim copy of the old functions (tests/.../Legacy) over a
grid of inputs, both to one client and as a broadcast (a temporary test
proved the copy matched production before it was deleted), plus hand
computed golden bytes, round trips and a deliberate field mutation that
made the tests fail. Layouts confirmed against the 1.10.64 client in
Ghidra. Only difference: a broadcast no longer makes
the extra Send(UNASSIGNED, false) that RakNet already rejected.
