refactor: migrate HeadDB to com.bitworksmc with legacy API support

Pending Commit Description

  • Moved plugin source packages from com.github.thesilentpro.headdb.* to com.bitworksmc.headdb.*.
  • Updated plugin main class references and build metadata to the new package namespace.
  • Switched Maven project coordinates for this project to com.bitworksmc.
  • Introduced new API namespace under com.bitworksmc.headdb.api.*.
  • Kept legacy API namespace (com.github.thesilentpro.headdb.api.*) for migration and marked it as deprecated.
  • Added a runtime adapter to register both legacy and modern HeadAPI services in Bukkit.
  • Updated documentation and release notes to reflect the migration and compatibility path.

Highlights

  • Full v6 rewrite foundation was introduced.
  • Added/expanded config system work (config manager, sound config, head customization, item factory relocation).
  • Added Folia 1.21.11 support and related compatibility fixes.
  • Head database source moved to a configurable URL option.
  • Menu pagination issues were fixed.
  • Vault economy integration was modernized to work with VaultUnlocked API expectations, with safer fallback behavior.
  • Project namespace migration started from com.github.thesilentpro to com.bitworksmc.

Breaking Changes (6.0.0)

  • Primary plugin code package moved to com.bitworksmc.headdb.*.
  • Bukkit plugin main class changed to com.bitworksmc.headdb.core.HeadDB.
  • Maven project group changed to com.bitworksmc.
  • Primary API namespace is now com.bitworksmc.headdb.api.*.

Compatibility Notes

  • Legacy API package com.github.thesilentpro.headdb.api.* is still present for migration and marked @Deprecated(forRemoval = true, since = "6.0.0").
  • HeadDB now registers both API service interfaces in Bukkit ServicesManager:
    • com.bitworksmc.headdb.api.HeadAPI (new)
    • com.github.thesilentpro.headdb.api.HeadAPI (legacy adapter)

Migration Guide

  1. Update imports from com.github.thesilentpro.headdb.* to com.bitworksmc.headdb.*.
  2. Update dependency coordinates to com.bitworksmc:*.
  3. Move service lookups to com.bitworksmc.headdb.api.HeadAPI.
  4. Keep legacy imports only temporarily while migrating; they are deprecated for removal.
