Restore LooksMenu camera state

Browse Source 
Capture the pre-LooksMenu third-person camera settings and restore them when character customization closes, so first-time customization returns to the normal over-the-shoulder view and movement controls. Also clear the saved snapshot during reset paths so cleanup still runs if the menu flow exits early.

### Next Steps
- Run in-game first-time flow and verify C++ LooksMenu then SPECIAL menu sequence.
- If SPECIAL does not reliably include name entry in your setup, evaluate explicit `ShowNameMenu` before or after SPECIAL based on observed FO4 behavior.

## 2026-06-28 - Looks menu camera restoration
### Summary
Fixed the first-time character customization close path so the third-person camera returns to its pre-LooksMenu state instead of staying in the front-facing face-edit view.
### Files Changed
- `plugin/src/F4TSessionLaunch.cpp`
- `changelog.md`
- `docs/dev-log.md`
### Details
- Added a pre-LooksMenu third-person camera snapshot before the C++ flow forces the face-edit camera.
- Restored shoulder offsets, zoom offsets, yaw, free-rotation state, model visibility, and offset application flags when LooksMenu closes.
- Made reset/retry cleanup restore the snapshot even if the menu flow exits before `SetInChargen 1` was applied.
### Testing
- Not run in this session (Fallout 4/F4SE runtime not available in this environment).
- Expected manual check: after closing LooksMenu during first-time server join, third-person camera returns behind the player and `W`/`S`/strafe inputs move normally.
- Verify in `CommonwealthOnline.log` that the flow logs `Restored third-person camera state after Looks menu.` before opening SPECIAL.
### Known Issues
- Not yet runtime-validated in-game.
### Next Steps
- Run first-time join through Vault 109, close LooksMenu, then confirm camera offset and movement controls before and after SPECIAL closes.
