LyttleNametag

v1.3.0

This pull request introduces significant updates to modernize the LyttleNametag plugin for Minecraft 1.21 and Paper, including a migration to Paper's new command and plugin lifecycle system, integration with PacketEvents, and several configuration and dependency improvements. The changes enhance maintainability, compatibility, and future-proofing of the plugin.

Core Plugin Modernization and Refactoring:

• Migrated command registration to use Paper's Brigadier-based command system and lifecycle events, replacing Bukkit's legacy command executor and tab completer. The LyttleNametagCommand class now defines commands using Brigadier and is registered during the appropriate plugin lifecycle event. [1] [2]
• Integrated PacketEvents using the recommended lifecycle (onLoad, onEnable, onDisable), ensuring proper initialization, configuration, and termination of the PacketEvents API within LyttleNametag. [1] [2] [3]

Configuration and Dependency Management:

• Replaced the legacy plugin.yml with the new paper-plugin.yml format, including updated metadata and explicit server dependency declarations for plugins like PlaceholderAPI, ProtocolLib, and ViaVersion, improving compatibility and startup order. [1] [2]
• Updated the default and main configuration files to fix formatting issues in the nametag template, ensuring correct display of placeholders and colors.

Build System Updates:

• Updated the plugin version to 1.3.0 in gradle.properties and upgraded the Gradle wrapper to version 8.11.1 for improved build reliability and compatibility. [1] [2]
