Dawson Hessler 9dc312186b Shrunk jar file size, fixed errors, added database reload
- Fixed H2 database error on index creation when loading plugin by using dynamic library downloader/loader from Lucko's Helper.
- Shrunk jar file size extensively so it can be uploaded to Spigot directly.
- Updated h2database driver to 2.1.214 to patch vulnerability
- Updated mysql database driver to 8.0.30 to patch vulnerability
- Updated MongoDB java driver to 3.12.11.

/**
* Accepts a {@code @Nullable T} and returns a plain {@code T}, without performing any check that
* that conversion is safe.
*
* <p>This method is intended to help with usages of type parameters that have {
* ParametricNullness parametric nullness}. If a type parameter instead ranges over only non-null
* types (or if the type is a non-variable type, like {@code String}), then code should almost
* never use this method, preferring instead to call {@code requireNonNull} so as to benefit from
* its runtime check.
*
* <p>An example use case for this method is in implementing an {@code Iterator<T>} whose {@code
* next} field is lazily initialized. The type of that field would be {@code @Nullable T}, and the
* code would be responsible for populating a "real" {@code T} (which might still be the value
* {@code null}!) before returning it to callers. Depending on how the code is structured, a
* nullness analysis might not understand that the field has been populated. To avoid that problem
* without having to add {@code @SuppressWarnings}, the code can call this method.
*
* <p>Why <i>not</i> just add {@code SuppressWarnings}? The problem is that this method is
* typically useful for {@code return} statements. That leaves the code with two options: Either
* add the suppression to the whole method (which turns off checking for a large section of code),
* or extract a variable, and put the suppression on that. However, a local variable typically
* doesn't work: Because nullness analyses typically infer the nullness of local variables,
* there's no way to assign a {@code @Nullable T} to a field {@code T foo;} and instruct the
* analysis that that means "plain {@code T}" rather than the inferred type {@code @Nullable T}.
* (Even if supported added {@code @NonNull}, that would not help, since the problem case
* addressed by this method is the case in which {@code T} has parametric nullness -- and thus its
* value may be legitimately {@code null}.)
