Developer:

• PokemonStorage now implements Iterable. Allowing for it to be used in enhanced for loops
• PokemonStorage now has an abstract PokemonStorage#clear()V method which is implemented by both sub classes and will remove all Pokemon from the storage
• Removed the "dynamax scale" and changed it to just use the Pixelmon's scale factor
• Added ShaderProperties to AbstractClientEntity
• Changed the StorageProxy and StorageManager to return CompletableFuture on the default methods as the loading of the player data now defers to the Scheduler's thread
• Moved StorageSaveScheduler and StorageSaveAdapter out of the StorageManager and as static variables in the StorageProxy
• Added StorageSaveScheduler#getExecutor so that async execution can be done when accessing the party through the CompletableFuture interface
• Adds the BoxCountCalculateEvent with Pre and Post for changing the box count of a PC on a per-player basis
• Added methods to the StorageProxy and StorageManager with "Now" suffix to maintain instantaneous access to the PC/Party where applicable. Most use cases are fine to use this however, it's notable that these should not be used if attempting to load offline player data as they will hold the thread until done (as was seen with the previously implementation when players logged in). These methods have been observed taking up to 2,000ms (probably more sometimes too) when players have a significant number of boxes in their PC.
• Added the ParseAttempt interface
• Changed the SpecificationProxy to return ParseAttempt when creating
