Refactor death log handling in UserCharacterWorker: Introduced a new function optional_linked_names to streamline the retrieval of linked names (spouses, children, lovers) in the death context. This change enhances error handling and maintains the integrity of the deceased character's data in JSON format. Updated the handle_character_death method to utilize the new function, improving code readability and maintainability.
