US-022: Share Pocket Base flight through a portal

As a Pocket Base owner, I want an activated flight portal inside my Pocket Base so that I can temporarily share controlled flight with guests without changing my own default-flight preference.

Acceptance criteria

  • The owner must first unlock Pocket Base flight by winning a raid in their own Pocket Base.
  • Only the owner can activate a complete 4-by-5 gold-block frame with flint and steel as the active flight portal.
  • Every required frame block must be inside the owner's currently unlocked Pocket Base boundary at activation.
  • Each Pocket Base has at most one active flight portal, and activating another valid frame moves the active location without removing the old frame.
  • The active flight portal uses custom particles and collision without vanilla Nether portal blocks.
  • Breaking any required block in the active frame deactivates the flight portal.
  • Any player, including the owner or a guest, who passes through the active intact flight portal receives temporary Pocket Base flight.
  • Portal-granted flight remains independent of the owner's default Pocket Base flight preference.
  • Portal-granted flight spans the world's full build height and the current Pocket Base boundary plus 16 blocks on every side.
  • An actively flying player receives a warning inside the 16-block buffer, and flight ends beyond it.
  • Expanding the Pocket Base automatically expands the portal-granted flight area.
  • Portal-granted flight ends when the player leaves the Pocket Base, dies, disconnects, or changes out of Survival mode.
  • The active flight portal location and owner default-flight preference persist across restarts.
  • Existing saved Pocket Bases default to no flight portal while preserving raid-earned owner flight as enabled.
