4899a1eb93 Disable use of Locks on main thread for DataPaletteBlock
This should greatly improve performance by using a No Op lock
while on the main thread.

Vanilla always had a write lock on write operations, but we added
a Read Lock during Async Chunks to make concurrent writes non fatal
for Async Chunks.

This means we added on a bunch of over head to all chunk read operations.

This corrects that, as well as disabling the write lock while on main thread.

It is a general rule that you do not touch a chunk async once it is loaded
into the world, as we never had locks on the chunk before 1.13 even.

So once we are on main, we don't expect concurrent access to begin with,
so we don't need the write locks either.

6b6c3587bc Optimize some light chunk access
light calculations repeatedly looks up the same chunk while going
down on the Y access. Pass the chunk to it to skip many round trips
to the map lookup process.

while the gains arent as big since we have last access cache, it
should hopefully avoid many callstacks of depth and improve inlining,
as well as avoids entering a synchronized code block.

The avoiding of entering synchronized section is the main goal here.

797e0b8dd7 Remove Water optimization from the Light Optimizations
case was found where it could cause light to become incorrect

But we still get to optimize out any same block updates which reduces light operations

b457bf2c57 Optimize Light Recalculations
The server triggers light recalculations even if the new block
is the same as the old block. At this time, BlockData Properties
do not impact light calculations.

So the only way light should change, is if the block itself
changes from 1 block to another.

Additionally, as of 1.13, water now only blocks 1 light level
instead of 3, meaning that light level decreasing is the same as air.

This means, transitions between water and air also do not need
to recalculate light, which saves a TON of updates caused by
fluids flowing.
