feat: expand progression and multiplayer systems

Add named save slots, progression import/export, and a unified play flow. Add live friend requests, presence, invitations, and relationship controls without durable discovery-server social storage. Advance the network protocol with isolated channels, movement reconciliation, late-join recovery, fishing replication, and animation synchronization. Preserve per-species catch totals, refine generated-world startup and water recovery, and complete the related input and interface improvements.
