Due to the changes in 1.13, clients will send a tab completion request
for all bukkit commands in order to factor in the lack of support for
brigadier and provide backwards support in the API.
Craftbukkit, however; has moved the chat spam limiter to also interact
with the tab completion request, which while good for avoiding abuse,
causes 1.13 clients to easilly be kicked from a server in bukkit due
to this. Removing the spam limit could cause issues for servers, however,
there is no way for servers to manipulate this without blindly cancelling
kick events, which only causes additional complications. This also causes
issues in that the tab spam limit and chat share the same field but different
limits, meaning that a player having typed a long command may be kicked from
the server.
Splitting the field up and making it configurable allows for server owners
to take the burden of this into their own hand without having to rely on
plugins doing unsafe things.
This patch has been applied to 1.12.2 in order to allow people using
plugins which allow clients of newer versions to connect, this is
not a common practice, however is being done as a level of nicety
given the current status of 1.13
This enables us a fast reference to the entities current chunk instead
of having to look it up by hashmap lookups.
We also store counts by type to further enable other performance optimizations in later patches.
CraftBukkit removed their implementation that caused this issue,
switching to Mojang's implementation which doesn't appear to share it. I
already removed the important bit in the last upstream merge, this is
just unused and unnecessary now. So we remove it.
