This commit removes two patches from spigot:
please review the patch messages for more information, however;
"Allow Disabling of Random Lighting Updates" potentially leaves chunk light maps in an invalid state, with
how often the server looks at these anyways, this patch really serves a questionable nature, the work is
going to be done, only it's being delayed and allowing the light map to be left in a potentially outdated
state.
"Fix some chunks not being sent to the client" sends chunks before their lighting has been calculated, this
means that the client will recieve chunks before they lighting has been calculated which can cause rendering
artifacts. The original issue around this patch appears to have already been fixed years ago.
In 1.12.2, Mojang moved the processing of PacketPlayInKeepAlive off the main
thread, while entirely correct for the server, this causes issues with
plugins which are expecting the PlayerQuitEvent on the main thread.
In order to counteract some bad behavior, we will post handling of the
disconnection to the main thread, but leave the actual processing of the packet
on the main thread.

Java decided to change their versioning scheme and in doing so modified the
java.version system property to return $major[.$minor][.$secuity][-ea], as
opposed to 1.$major.0_$identifier we can handle pre-9 by checking if the "major"
is equal to "1", otherwise, 9+
of course, it really wouldn't be all that simple if they didn't add a quirk, now would it.
valid strings for the major may potentially include values such as -ea to deannotate a pre release
Some plugins bypass the plugin logger and add the plugin prefix
manually to the log message. Since they use other logger names
(e.g. qualified class names) these would now also appear in the
log. Disable the logger prefix for these plugins so the messages
show up correctly.
SLF4J is a commonly used abstraction for various logging frameworks
such as java.util.logging (JUL) or Log4j. Currently, plugins are
required to do all their logging using the provided JUL logger.
This is annoying for plugins that target multiple platforms or when
using libraries that log messages using SLF4J.
Expose SLF4J as optional logging API for plugins, so they can use
it without having to shade it in the plugin and going through
several layers of logging abstraction.
Log4j2 provides an optimized implementation of PrintStream that
redirects its output to a logger. Use it instead of a custom
implementation for minor performance improvements and some fixes.
With the old implementation, each call to System.print()
results in a separate line, even though it should not result in
a line break. Log4j's implementation handles it correctly.
Refactored 0229-Fix-this-stupid-bullshit in order to prevent merge conflicts
when spigot decides to update the timer and to provide some form of hint in the
console/log on startup.
FixesPaperMC/Paper#883 same issue as MinecraftForge/MinecraftForge#4386
A more detailed anaylsis of what is probably going on, courtesy of
@bs2609 and the MCForge Issue Tracker is:
When a chunk is unloaded, the entities and tile entities it contains are
marked for removal. The actual removal (from the world) occurs later,
when the world ticks its entities.
Conversely, when a chunk is loaded, it generally adds its entities to
the world promptly, without queuing.
Here's the normal sequence of events:
Chunk unloaded
Old entities removed
Chunk loaded
New entities added
However, what can happen:
Chunk unloaded
Chunk loaded
New entities added
Old entities removed
This occurs when an unloaded chunk is reloaded before its corresponding
entities have been removed.
Fixes falling dragon eggs in lazy chunks fall to the block below the last empty block and replacing that block with them.

Spigot is manipulating the Travel Agents canCreatePortal, but forgot to reset it on cancel
This causes nether portals to not be generated if the event is ever cancelled
