fix: owned items showed a price because they were served as base avatar items

defaultbaseavataritems returned the first 100 catalog items. The 2023
client flags every row of that list as a custom-clothing template
(AvatarItemData.IsBaseAvatarItem, keyed by AvatarItemId) and skips
templates when it rebuilds the owned outfit-menu entries, so those 100
ordinary items (80sHipHopJacket, Beard Close, ...) showed a price even
when owned and equipped, while the cart (which checks the owned set)
said "owned".

- defaultbaseavataritems returns only the UGC templates, UGCTee_Shirt
  (AvatarItemId 2184) and UGCPulloverHoodie_Shirt (2918), as the real
  service served them
- those two keep the same ids in every list and carry IsBaseAvatarItem
- they're no longer sold (existing shop rows are removed on seed) or
  listed as owned clothing
