Server
- Fix starvation bug that occurred when eating artifact foods
- It turned out that FLAG_IS_USED_UP always decrements food, so when the force in the player's inventory ticked down, it slowly worsened the player's digestion, once something caused the player to recalculate, such as equipping an item, an effect expiring, eating another food, etc. the player would quickly starve to death
