Start the next PBV2_NNNN pool index past BOTH the realm-local counter and
any PBV2_* bnet account already present in the shared auth DB, so a fresh
or renamed characters DB no longer restarts numbering at 1 and collides
with the existing fleet (AOR_NAME_ALREADY_EXIST x8 -> pool starvation).
utf8mb4_uca1400_ai_ci (MariaDB-only) breaks bootstrap on MySQL, where
CREATE DATABASE/CREATE TABLE fails outright. Switch the shared playerbot
schema and bootstrapped tables to utf8mb4_general_ci, matching the rest
of the playerbot_v2 migrations.
The LEFT JOIN characters.characters cross-DB qualifier hardcoded the
characters schema name, breaking installs with a renamed characters
database. Read it from CharacterDatabase.GetConnectionInfo() (worldserver.conf
CharacterDatabaseInfo) instead, falling back to 'characters'.
