6.0.0: Better configs, stats, data, and more

137 commits... oh boy..

Not going to list all the changes but here are some major ones:

• ⭐ Switch to Java 17 (compilation + runtime)
  • Now requires Java 17+ to run, rather than Java 8+
• ⭐ Stats manager rework by @srnyx in #20
  • Added FastStats, alongside existing bStats
• ⭐ Add Okaeri Configs support by @srnyx in #21
  • Now used for messages.yml and storage.yml too
  • messages.yml required a messages rework, so a MessagesProvider Registrable must now be created in consumer plugins and plugin.getMessagesProvider().get().MESSAGE.newMessage() needs to be used instead of new AnnoyingMessage(plugin, MESSAGE)
  • Lots more config (de)serializers added
• ⭐ Add HikariCP and jOOQ integration by @srnyx in #26
• ⭐ Better runtime library management (using Gradle Galaxy)
  • Libraries are now "true transitive" through Gradle Galaxy's utilities
  • All repositories, dependencies, relocations, exclusions, etc. are now applied through an automatically generated metadata file published alongside the API's jar (if using Gradle Galaxy)
• ⭐ Add XSeries
  • Used primarily for Okaeri Configs
  • Can now be used in consumer plugins
  • Some reflection classes were removed as XSeries can be used instead for them
• Allow cancel to be used in scheduler task runnables
• Add conditional loading methods to library manager
• Only load Item NBT API if not already loaded
  • Technically, Libby already does a check, but it needs to resolve a file path and check if the file exists, which is slower than just checking our loadedLibraries set
• Add registrable getters
• Use Gradle Galaxy's runtime library tools
• Add unit tests
• And much more...
