- .debug hostil now shows spawn ID (DBGUID) in addition to current GUID (so you can .go creature to it)
- .npc temp now takes an additional argument before the creature entry that determines whether the spawned creature instantly despawns upon death. Default is instant despawn (current behavior).
- Add .npc evade command.
- Add .pet level command.
- .server shutdown and .server restart now fail with an error message if time is below a config var (GM.ForceShutdownThreshold, default 30s) as long as another player is connected.
- New commands .server shutdown force and .server restart force bypass this limitation.

- Clean up of Unit::SetSpeed (mostly cherry picks from the 6.x branch):
- the opcode sent depends on the unit. until now, MSG_MOVE_SET_* were sent for every units which isn't like retail behavior.
- Removed the unused method parameter "forced" from Unit::SetSpeed
- Renamed Unit::SetSpeed to SetSpeedRate
- Removed the unused method parameter "forced" from Unit::UpdateSpeed
- Added utility method Unit::SetSpeed which take the new flat value.
