Start refactoring UidAllocator to contain mappings for different Id

types.

* Add new `IdMaps` type that contains mappings to Entity from Uid, CharacterId, and
  RtsimEntity.
* Add PresenceKind::LoadingCharacter variant for when the CharacterId
  has not actually been confirmed to exist and belong to the logged in
  client. Switches to the regular PresenceKind::Character once the
  character is loaded from the database and that is used to update the
  entity.
* Start refactoring `delete_entity_recorded` to check for CharacterId
  and RtsimEntity values that may need to be removed from the map (just
  very start, not near complete).
* Other misc tweaks.
