wip(hook): retained client-hook WIP \u2014 resolver_hook, store_hook, openfut-common crate

RETAINED PRE-EXISTING client-hook WIP (brought forward after verification).
Adds resolver_hook.rs + store_hook.rs and a new openfut-common crate, plus
config/connect/fifa17/hooks/lib refinements. No secrets/staging addresses.
Preserved on feat/sbc-hook-tracing so it is recoverable and pushed.

+//! Shared OpenFUT destination configuration.
+//!
+//! This crate is the **single source of truth** for where FIFA's intercepted
+//! EA traffic is redirected. It is consumed by both the launcher (which writes
+//! `openfut.cfg`) and `openfut_hook.dll` (which reads it and rewrites sockets).
+//!
+//! Design rules enforced here:
+//!   * There is exactly ONE configured OpenFUT destination (host + ports).
+//!   * Missing/invalid configuration is a hard error — it NEVER silently
+//!     degrades to `127.0.0.1`/localhost. Loopback is only ever used if the
+//!     user explicitly configures it.
+//!   * The address/port -> WinSock representation helpers live here and are
+//!     unit-tested on the host, so the byte-order logic the socket hooks depend
+//!     on is verified without needing WinSock or FIFA.
+//!
+//! ## EA source ports vs OpenFUT destination ports
+//!
+//! FIFA connects to a handful of EA endpoints on fixed ports. Those source
+//! ports are *signatures* used to recognise traffic that must be intercepted —
+//! they are hardcoded on purpose (see [`ea_ports`]). Each recognised EA source
+//! port maps to an OpenFUT *destination* port, which comes from configuration
+//! ([`OpenFutPorts`]). Source port = fixed EA signature; destination port =
+//! configurable OpenFUT service.

+//! DNS-resolver inline detours (getaddrinfo / GetAddrInfoW / gethostbyname).
+//!
+//! WHY THIS EXISTS (FIFA 17): the IAT approach in `hooks.rs` patched **0** slots on
+//! FIFA 17 (`getaddrinfo IAT patched 0+0`) because the game does not import the
+//! resolver through its import table — it resolves EA hostnames via a path the IAT
+//! scan never covers (dynamic `GetProcAddress`, a statically-linked DirtySDK
+//! resolver, or the legacy `gethostbyname`). An IAT patch can only rewrite callers
+//! that go through the table, so it missed every real resolution.
+//!
+//! FIX: detour the resolver **at its export address** in ws2_32.dll, exactly like
+//! `connect_hook` does for `connect`. An inline JMP at the function entry catches
+//! *every* caller regardless of how it found the function. We use the same
+//! unhook → call real → rehook pattern (no trampoline, no RIP relocation).
+//!
+//! We cover three resolvers:
+//!   - `getaddrinfo`   (ANSI, modern)
+//!   - `GetAddrInfoW`  (wide, modern)  — EAWebKit/WinHTTP often use the W variant
+//!   - `gethostbyname` (legacy, DirtySDK-era) — returns a `hostent`
+//!
+//! On an EA hostname we rewrite the query node to the configured redirect IP so the
+//! real resolver returns the bridge's address. The redirect IP string is owned by
+//! `hooks` (set once via `hooks::set_redirect_ip`); we read it back through
+//! `hooks::redirect_ip_cstr()`.

+//! FIFA 17 empty-"My Packs" client fix (config flag `store_mypacks_fix=1`).
+//!
+//! ## What this does
+//! When the account owns **zero unopened packs**, FIFA 17's Store still selects the
+//! "My Packs" category on open. CardsDLL's category resolver (`FUN_1800147f0` →
+//! `FUN_180014420`) then looks up the My-Packs group ordinal and, if no such group
+//! exists, dereferences a NULL group pointer → crash (`0x180014882`, read of `0x48`).
+//! The backend currently avoids this with an active placeholder pack (sentinel 65534)
+//! that leaves a fake empty tile.
+//!
+//! This hook removes the need for that sentinel *for a validated build*: it detours the
+//! Store render entry `FUN_18007dab0` and, **only when the requested category is My Packs
+//! AND the client's unopened-pack count is 0**, rewrites the requested category id at
+//! `screen+0x290` to `0` (list-all = "Browse Packs"). The Store then opens on Browse
+//! Packs, never resolves the absent My-Packs group, and neither crashes nor shows a fake
+//! tile. With a real unopened pack (count > 0) nothing is changed and My Packs works
+//! normally.
+//!
+//! ## Safety model
+//! - **Inert unless enabled**: reads `store_mypacks_fix` from `openfut.cfg`; default OFF.
+//! - **Validated build only**: refuses to install unless CardsDLL matches the known FIFA
+//!   17 build (PE timestamp + SizeOfImage + a slide-proof control prologue + the target
+//!   function's own prologue signature). An unknown build → no patch, log, and the
+//!   backend sentinel remains the fallback.
+//! - **Deferred**: CardsDLL loads lazily on entering Ultimate Team, so we poll off the
+//!   loader lock, exactly like `sbc_hook`.
+//! - **Fail-safe count**: if the unopened-pack count cannot be read, we DO NOT redirect
+//!   (leave the category unchanged and call the original) — never a forced Browse.
+//! - **Inline detour**: same proven `unhook → call real → rehook` primitive as
+//!   `resolver_hook`/`connect_hook` (no trampoline, no RIP relocation).
+//!
+//! Addresses are RVAs (static VA − image base `0x180000000`); see
+//! `docs/plans/FIFA17_EMPTY_MYPACKS_CLIENT_FIX.md` PART II for the disassembly evidence.
