Description
### Current Behaviour
When the AutoBalance module is enabled, seasonal event bosses do not scale correctly. For example, during the Midsummer Fire Festival, Ahune does not behave as expected when the module applies scaling.
On my server, everything else appears to work correctly with AutoBalance (regular dungeons, raids, and bosses), but event bosses seem to be an exception.
No crashes occur; this is a gameplay/balance issue rather than a server stability issue.
### Expected Behaviour
Seasonal event bosses, such as Ahune, should scale correctly according to the AutoBalance configuration, just like regular dungeon and raid bosses
### Steps to reproduce the problem
1. Enter the dungeon event with de LFG tool
2. Start the encounter

Research direction
Start in the AutoBalance module and reproduce the Ahune encounter through the LFG tool with scaling enabled, comparing it with a regular dungeon or raid boss. Trace how seasonal event bosses are identified and scaled; done means Ahune and similar event bosses follow the configured AutoBalance behavior without affecting existing encounters.
