Head Hunter Plugin -----

Give mobs a rare chance of dropping their head when killed.




Added the chicken, cow and pig variants.
- The chances for the variants will automatically update to whatever your chances were previously.
- Current headcounts/killcounts will update to the temperate variant.
- Name translation will become <original_translated_name>_<variant>. If you translated your names, you'll want to update these.

- Fixed a bug where some mob name translations couldn't be found in the killcount/headcount commands
- Removed a debug log statement that I accidentally left in

New Mobs added:
- Armadillo
- All Wolf variants (if youre upgrading to this version, previous wolf stats are converted to wolf_pale)

I made some changes to the head Persistent Data Containers. This means old heads from versions 2.0.8 and below will not stack with version 3.0.0 heads.

I was previously grabbing a players Display Name instead of actual Name so their head counts were showing up in the tab list. That has now been fixed.

Fixed an issue where a player killing another player led to the plugin trying to translate "PLAYER" but that doesn't have a valid translation because I didn't add player heads to the plugin.

This would have just been an ERROR that shows up in your logs, but now that error won't show up anymore.

If you changed the head_hunter_config.yml to not include a required variable then version 2.0.4 would error out because it wasn't grabbing the default messages correctly. This fixes that issue.
