NekoList v1.2.1 - Stability & Correctness Fixes

This patch release focuses on improving the stability, correctness, and maintainability of the plugin, addressing several issues identified in v1.2.0.

🔧 Fixed

• Critical: Duplicate Class Definitions: Resolved the issue where DiscordBot and DiscordEventListener were incorrectly defined as identical classes. The codebase now correctly separates concerns between the bot instance and its event listeners.
• Enhanced Token Validation: Improved the check for the Discord bot token. The bot will now fail to start cleanly if the token is missing or remains the default placeholder "YOUR_BOT_TOKEN_HERE", preventing unintended attempts to connect with invalid credentials.
• Dependency Cleanup: Removed unnecessary snakeyaml dependency. The plugin now correctly relies on the built-in YAML support provided by Bukkit/Spigot and Velocity APIs, reducing the final JAR size.
• Resource Handling: Corrected the Gradle build script's processResources task. It now correctly includes only .yml files from the resources directory, as these are the only types used by the plugin, removing the redundant .yaml inclusion.
• Removed Unused Dependency: Eliminated the unused compileOnly("net.luckperms:api:5.4") dependency from the build configuration.
• Refined Shadow JAR Exclusions: Updated the shadowJar task to correctly exclude Paper and Velocity API dependencies only when they are included via implementation. The existing compileOnly declarations already handle this correctly for the target platforms.
• Documentation Accuracy: Corrected instructions in the README regarding building from source (./gradlew build) and clarified platform-specific sections (Paper/Forks, Velocity/Forks).
• Translation Consistency: Updated the "ping" command response translation placeholders in the example configuration and language files to ensure consistency (e.g., "¡Pong!" in Spanish is now correctly "¡Ping!").

🏗️ Internal Improvements

• Code Structure: Refactored internal structures to ensure better separation of logic between core plugin, Bukkit module, and Velocity module.
• Build Process: Streamlined the Gradle build process for clarity and efficiency.
• Maintainability: Addressed structural issues that could lead to confusion or errors in future development.
