Model Engine—Ultimate Entity Model Manager [1.19.4 - 1.21.4] R4.0.8

Bug Fix:
- Fixed hitboxes not applied on persistent models
- Fixed death animation not playing when no other animations are playing while dying
- Fixed OBB not working on 1.20.5+
- Fixed entity interaction range using BlockInteractionRange instead of EntityInteractionRange
- Fixed `interactmount` attribute of `mountmodel` mechanic not used

- Expanded `syncyaw` mechanic to sync between any yaw type (`yaw`, `body` and `head`)

New Features:
- 1.21.3 & 1.21.4 support
- Cubes no longer have angle limit. For <=1.21.3, additional bones would be spawned. >=1.21.4 will not add more entities

- Support for MM ModelEngine bullet
- Added Multi-base-item generation
- AnimateModel Mechanic, allows controlling bone transform through skills

- Improved custom model parsing API
- Improved custom bone behavior parsing API
- Added `skipLastFrame` attribute to state mechanic
- Textures with names containing illegal characters would now fix itself by generating a UUID as the name
- Animation LOD system. Models will send less update to viewers further away from them

New Features:

- Segment & Tail bone
- [MM] Segment mechanic which allows finer control of the behavior of the segment/tail bone

- [MM] Placeholder for getting body rotation

Changes:
- Optimized culling hitbox generation

Bug Fixes:

- Fixed entity data being updated while animations are still being calculated
- [MM] Fixed Model.Id not lowercasing values
- Fixed playerQueue NPE

New Features:

- Fixed potion effects not applied to disguised players [Issue 104]
- Fixed compatibility enabling when the depended plugin has disabled itself
- Fixed whitespaces in model saved data would cause loading error
- Fixed WorldGuard `getName()` NPE (because WorldGuard just can't be bothered to fix it, and IT'S NOT MY FAULT THEY USED NULLABLE METHODS WITHOUT NULL CHECKS)
- [MM] Fixed ModelPart targeter using the wrong scale to scale the location
- [MM] Fixed MM mechanics not recognized if using namespace and mechanic alias (e.g. meg:ModelSkin)
