This patch detects whether or not the server is currently executing as a privileged user and spits out a warning. The warning serves as a sort-of PSA for newer server admins who don't understand the risks of running as root.
We've seen plenty of bad/malicious plugins hit markets, and there's been a few close-calls with exploits in the past. Hopefully this helps mitigate some potential damage to servers, even if it is just a warning.
* Optimise random block ticking
Massive performance improvement for random block ticking.
The performance increase comes from the fact that the vast
majority of attempted block ticks (~95% in my testing) fail
because the randomly selected block is not tickable.
Now only tickable blocks are targeted, however this means that
the maximum number of block ticks occurs per chunk. However,
not all chunks are going to be targeted. The percent chance
of a chunk being targeted is based on how many tickable blocks
are in the chunk.
This means that while block ticks are spread out less, the
total number of blocks ticked per world tick remains the same.
Therefore, the chance of a random tickable block being ticked
remains the same.

This deprecates the Paper getHighestBlockAt HeightMap APIs now that
Bukkit has added their own. These methods will stick around long enough
for people to migrate. Their API is pretty much the same as ours,
migration should be quick and easy.

e911c70f SPIGOT-5542: Cancelling EntityToggleGlideEvent doesn't stop client from gliding
This fixes an issue with plugins using legacy materials, spigot does
not populate the bukkit registry properly, leading to NPEs when using
outdated plugins. This patch should likely be dropped when spigot fixes
their legacy data usage....

CB used the resulting item in the dispenser rather than the item
dispensed. The resulting item would have size == 0 and therefore
be convertered to air, hence why the effects disappeared.
