Mojang uses two formats for UUIDs, short and dashed. MCServer works with short UUIDs internally, but
will convert to dashed UUIDs where needed - in the protocol login for example. The MakeUUIDShort()
and MakeUUIDDashed() functions are provided for plugins to use for conversion between the two

+ This class will cache values returned by the API service. The cache will hold the values for 7 days
+ by default, after that, they will no longer be available. This is in order to not let the server get
+ banned from using the API service, since they are rate-limited to 600 queries per 10 minutes. The
+ cache contents also gets updated whenever a player successfully joins, since that makes the server
+ contact the API service, too, and retrieve the relevant data.</p>
