- Minecraft 1.7 and 1.8 are no longer supported, there is no reason to still be on a version that old

* Switched over to the Spigot Particle API
* Plugin is now built against Java 1.8.0_161 and Spigot 1.9.4-R0.1

* Fix issue with the style 'halo' that caused 10 errors per second to be printed to the config. These were listed as "java.lang.NullPointerException" or "Task #### for PlayerParticles generated an exception". Thanks to everybody who helped find this error. (It's been in the plugin for over 6 months somehow)
