Balloon Ultimate - Folia Support v2.3.26

- Added support and dynamic loading (Jar-in-Jar) for NMS 26.1, 26.1.1, and 26.1.2.

- The API now isolates Java 25 classes to prevent crashes on servers running Java 17/21.

• Persistent Cooldowns: Integrated H2 and MySQL support to store cooldowns. Timers will now persist and remain active even after a server restart or shutdown.
• Cooldown Caching System: Implemented a memory-based cache to handle active timers, ensuring high performance and reducing direct database lookups.

New Interaction Commands
We've made it easier to trigger actions when players interact with items. You can now use these new aliases in your configs:

• [sendmessage] to send a direct message.
• [playercommand] to force the player to run a command.
• [consolecommand] to execute a command as the console.

Improved Balloon Editor
Customizing balloons is now much more precise! We've improved the editor so you can easily adjust the scale, tilt, and exact location of your balloons without glitches.

Massive Performance & Caching Enhancements
This is the core of this update. We've reworked how the plugin handles data to save your server's RAM and CPU:

• Hologram Optimization: Holograms now use a smart caching system, meaning they update much smoother and consume fewer resources.
• Smart Cleanup: The plugin now automatically cleans up viewer data and manages tick intervals better. No more ghost entities or memory leaks!
• Faster Head Textures: Refreshed how UUIDs and player textures are loaded so heads appear instantly.
• ArmorStand Stability: Improved integration with EasyArmorStands. Even if something goes wrong, the plugin will handle it gracefully without throwing console errors.

• New view-distance option: Added a new configuration option to adjust the visual range. This allows you to optimize and customize the distance at which players can view or interact with elements.
• permission interaction: Implemented a new permission-based action. You can now require a specific permission node for every click or interaction, giving you full control over which players or ranks can execute certain actions.
• Update Checker: Integrated an automatic notification system. Administrators will now be notified (via the console or upon joining the server) whenever a new version of the plugin is available for download.

• Error fixed: Invalid JSON: com.google.gson.stream.MalformedJsonException: Use JsonReader.setStrictness(Strictness.LENIENT) to accept malformed JSON on line 2, column 2, path $
