Fixed

• A character logging into 1.0 for the first time came up with a fifteen row inventory. Valheim 1.0.7's Player.OnSpawned only calls SetInventorySize when the character already carries an invrows key, and otherwise just writes the key and returns. Every character made before 1.0 takes that second branch exactly once, on its first 1.0 login, so the prefix that learns vanilla's row count never fired and the baseline stayed at -1. The load-time widening then added its sixteen rows of working space to that -1 and the grid came up fifteen tall, after which the fallback measured the widened grid and adopted fifteen as vanilla's own height.

  Two changes. Player.OnSpawned now has a postfix that reads invrows back and learns the baseline from it, which is correct on both branches rather than only the broken one: on the else branch it returns the 4 vanilla just wrote, and on the other one Restore has already put the true base back into that key, so it is a no-op. And the widening now works from a height that exists rather than from an unlearned baseline, with the pre-widening height kept so the fallback can no longer measure the working space and mistake it for the inventory.

  No items were ever at risk - the eviction fence in VanillaRowsDrop holds the grid at whatever rows are occupied, and it did. The condition also clears itself on the next login, because vanilla wrote the key on the way through. It was wrong and alarming rather than destructive.

  Found on the live server an hour after updating it, reported as "i logged in and i have a 15 row inventory". Fifteen is LoadSlack - 1, which is what identified it.

  Player.OnSpawned is now in CorePlugin.Verify's list, so a future failure to attach that patch is named at startup instead of showing up as a strange row count.
