Extends gender system beyond WoW's binary male/female to support nonbinary characters with proper they/them pronouns. Implements client-side gender mapping (nonbinary→male) for 3.3.5a server compatibility while preserving player identity through local config persistence. Adds pronoun placeholders ($p/$o/$s/$S) and three-option gender text parsing ($g<male>:<female>:<nonbinary>;) for inclusive quest and dialog text.
CMSG_TRAINER_BUY_SPELL was missing the trainerId field — server expects
guid(8) + trainerId(4) + spellId(4) = 16 bytes, not 12. Spells with
unmet prerequisites (chainNode1/2/3), insufficient level, or already
known are now greyed out with disabled Train buttons. Tooltips show
prerequisite status in green/red.

the packet position, corrupting subsequent aura slots in ALL updates.

UI windows for quest completion and reward selection.
Correct PLAYER_FIELD_INV_SLOT_HEAD default from 322 to 324 (UNIT_END+0xB0)
which was shifting every equipment slot by one position. Fix auto-detection

avoid conflicts. Don't reopen gossip window while quest details are
showing.
Parse SMSG_QUESTGIVER_QUEST_DETAILS and show quest text with Accept/
Decline buttons. Vendor window now shows item names with quality colors,
