Compact Chat

• Added support for 1.20.6 (#31)
• Fixed a regression for a bug where messages which have timestamps added to them by other mods would not be compacted (by @70CentsApple, #32)

Note: This version of compact-chat supports 1.21.

• Fixed an issue where messages that have been sent over 100 times would not get compacted into a single message. (#30)
• Added the ability to configure the maximum occurrences amount.
  • Any message which has an occurrence count above this amount (e.g. 100) will be compacted into one message which says 100+.

• Fixed an issue where long messages being spammed would cause the game to lag more than it does in vanilla. (#27)
• Message occurrences stop incrementing after 100 occurrences, it will say 100+ for anything above 100.

Minor performance improvements and under-the-hood changes.

• Messages are now identified by their string contents, and not their Text instance, meaning that the mod should be faster in general - but this may not be that obvious.

• We have added a cache to Minecraft’s code which splits a single text message into multiple lines to be displayed, this was an expensive operation, and if it was being run for the same message multiple times (which is the case with Compact Chat, but not in vanilla, due to us removing duplicate messages), it will cause a lot of lag. This cache’s entries are cleared if the entry has not been accessed for over a minute.
