Housing: Complete initiative persistence — task progress, milestones, rewards

- Add neighborhood_initiative_task_progress table persisting per-task progress
  and status (NOT_STARTED/IN_PROGRESS/COMPLETE) across server restarts
- Add neighborhood_initiative_milestones table persisting milestone reached
  state with timestamps
- Add neighborhood_initiative_reward_claims table tracking per-player reward
  claims to prevent double-claiming
- Implement PersistSingleTaskProgress, PersistMilestoneReached, PersistRewardClaim
  with corresponding CHAR_REP/INS prepared statements
- LoadFromDB now restores task progress, milestone state, and reward claims
  from DB instead of defaulting to zero/recalculating
- Implement ClaimMilestoneReward with full DB2 reward chain: walks
  InitiativeRewardXMilestone → InitiativeReward to grant currency, items,
  or favor based on RewardType
- HasUnclaimedRewards now checks per-player claim state, not just milestone reached
- HandleGetInitiativeClaimRewardRequest and HandleGetInitiativeOpenChestRequest
  now use ClaimMilestoneReward for actual reward distribution
- PersistTaskProgress stub replaced with full implementation
