LuckPerms data will need to be moved to a db (lots of options, including mongo: https://luckperms.net/wiki/Network-Installation)

conversion steps here: https://luckperms.net/wiki/Switching-storage-types

our proxy plugin will also need some ways to track locations for teleports and local chats and whatnot. wakka found a useful API for this: https://github.com/AnvilPowered/Anvil/
