The maven shade plugin has the ability to change the namespace for
included dependencies and packages. This change is being implemented to
remove all conflicts with any possible libraries in an execution
environment.
The only dependencies to be refactored are specific to CraftBukkit. To
refactor dependencies included with Bukkit breaks any plugin compiled
against those specific dependencies, especially ebeans--an API
specifically encouraged for database management.

The new scheduler uses a non-blocking methodology. Combining volatile
references to make a linked reference chain, with the atomic reference
handling the tail, tasks are queued without waiting for locks. The main
thread will no longer limit the length of time spend for scheduled tasks,
but no task will run twice in the same tick. Scheduling a new task inside of
a synchronous task will always run the new task during the same tick,
assuming there is no supplied delay > 0.
Asynchronous tasks are now run using a thread pool. Any thread-local
implemenation should now account for threads being reused between
executions.
Race conditions were carefully examined and the order of logic is now very
important. Each task is placed in a secondary collection before removal from
primary collections. Thus, by reading tasks from the collections in the same
order they travel, it retains state-safety. This does make modifications
less responsive in some situations, as the task may be transitioning before
the modifier accesses it. This cost outweighs the requirement to synchronize
on the scheduler; previously any conflict would be first-come-first-serve,
with the main thread backing out arbitrarily.

Many codepaths only end up with one iterator being used at a time and
most of the rest only get up to two being used so using a static pool of
three is wasteful. This also allows us to efficiently handle cases that
exceed 3 iterators in use. Overall this dramatically increases the hit rate
and results in less iterators being created.

This ArrayList duplicates part of the functionality of the much more
efficient chunk map so can be removed as the map can be used in the few
places this was needed.

Replace uses of LongHashtable and LongHashset with new implementations.
Remove EntryBase, LongBaseHashtable, LongHashset, and LongHashtable as they
are no longer used.
LongObjectHashMap does not use Entry or EntryBase classes internally for
storage so has much lower object churn and greater performance. LongHashSet
is not as much of performance win for our use case but for general use is
up to seventeen times faster than the old implementation and is in fact
faster than alternatives from "high performance" java libraries. This is
being added so that if someone tries to use it in the future in a place
unrelated to its current use they don't accidentally end up with something
slower than the Java collections HashSet implementation.

Adds a specialized iterator for the list and a pool of iterators to avoid
object churn. Also optimizes the clear() method to reduce object creation.

They can spawn any valid entities now. What is a "valid" entity? A "valid" entity is an EntityType with a non-null getName(). (for example: PRIMED_TNT, FALLING_BLOCK)

Added two utility collections for use with PlayerChatEvents allowing lazier
initialization of events and less need to synchronize against the player
list.
Provided a hidden queue system for similar logic to pre-1.3 chat. When a
plugin is listening for the deprecated PlayerChatEvent, all chat will be
delayed to be mirror executed from the main thread. All developers are
encouraged to immediately update to the developmental Bukkit chat API as a
minimum transition for server stability.
Additionally, changes were required to bring thread-safety to the flow
logic. CopyOnWriteArrayList is the only viable means to produce thread
safety with minimal diff; using a sane pre-implemented collection would
require reworking of sections of NMS logic.
As a minor change, implemented expected functionality for
PlayerCommandPreProcessEvent. Setting the player should now change the
player executing the command.

This allows previous causes to be available during the event, as well as making the damage cause a valid one. If EntityDamageEvent is canceled, then it's not the last DamageCause.
Also prevents setting DamageCause involuntarily through construction.
