First beta of v2. This release has overhauled large parts of the language and not everything can be listed here.

Some highlights:

• Replaced tree-walking interpreter with compiler for jvm bytecode
  • Noticeable performance uplift
• Expanded standard library
  • Minor changes everywhere
  • More of the stdlib is now written in jsonpatcher code
• Add reflection library for accessing java code
  • Locked by default to patches from mods and modpacks
  • Allows for more to be done in jsonpatcher without having to write wrappers in java
• Global patch system for libraries and startup patches for mods and modpacks
• Due to design limitations, metapatches now use a library instead of a global

Lots of improvements have also been done to tooling and the language server, but they will mostly be released at a later time.

• Updated to 1.21
