1.21 server support!
### Java 17 requirement
- See https://docs.papermc.io/misc/java-install on how to update your Java version
- Even Minecraft 1.8 is *mostly* able to run on Java 17, although for a better experience you should use a fork that fixes smaller issues
- Some older versions require the `Paper.IgnoreJavaVersion` system property to be set (`-DPaper.IgnoreJavaVersion=true` as a startup flag), but run perfectly fine using Java 17
- If all else fails, use the [Java 8 compatibility builds we provide](https://ci.viaversion.com/view/ViaBackwards/job/ViaBackwards-Java8/) at risk of not receiving support for issues it could cause - you should not make yourself depend on these *too* much, they will generally only be updated on releases
