Title: Permission cache overhaul

* Reworked group permission caching in session data (follow-up to cd45c30ab2dcc44bfbfac283d15bb09b3d4644bc)
* Removed duplicated information from session data in favor of direct pointer to group settings.
* Added getters for all group data required to process permissions and related stuff.
* Added new functions to PC interface and updated calls everywhere.
* Extracted function to set new group for a player (used at login, group config reload, manual adjustment of group).
* Improved dummy map session handling.
* Since it's required for all map sessions to have a valid group, dummy sessions are now created by a designated function.
* Updated related code that uses dummy sessions (console `gm use` and script `atcommand`, `useatcmd`).
* Various minor improvements and cleanups.
* Eliminated some global variables related to loading atcommand permissions for group by passing them directly to function.
* Moved definition of global array holding PC permission names from header file to source file.
* Streamlined destuction of atcommands database to use DBApply helper function instead of DBIterator.
* Replaced hardcoded position of console dummy session with defines from mapindex.h (thx Haruna for pointing it out).
* Removed fixed length restriction on group names.
