feat: host role admin controls

[ann7415]

This pull request introduces a comprehensive administrative console interface and adds robust IP and username ban management to the server. The changes enable banning and unbanning of IPs and users, both globally and within rooms, and provide supporting APIs and thread safety improvements. The SessionManager now tracks banned IPs, and the Room class manages banned usernames with proper locking.

Key changes include:

Administrative Console

• Added a new AdminConsole class (AdminConsole.hpp) that provides a text-based interface for server administration, including commands for status, session/room listing, kicking/banning users, and managing IP bans.

Session/IP Ban Management

• Implemented IP ban functionality in SessionManager, including methods to ban/unban IPs, check if an IP is banned, and list current bans. IP bans are automatically cleaned up after expiration, and all session-creation and authentication paths now check for banned IPs. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10]

Username/Room Ban Management

• Added per-room username ban support to the Room class, including methods to ban/unban usernames and check if a username is banned. Room join/leave and query operations are now thread-safe via mutex locking. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]

Session/User Lookup

• Added the ability to find a session ID by username in SessionManager, facilitating administrative actions by username as well as session ID. [1] [2] [3]

Thread Safety Improvements

• Ensured thread safety in Room operations by introducing scoped locks for all methods that access or modify session or ban data. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]

These changes significantly improve the server's administrative capabilities and security by allowing dynamic, real-time management of users and IPs.
