5.8.0

Changelog

26.1 client support. Please note that during the next few weeks, we may use the alpha build channel on Hangar/modrinth again (using the separate dev branch) - generally also safe to use, but you need to make sure not to mix alpha and beta builds of ViaVersion and ViaBackwards.

Fixed overworld and end background ambient tracks being swapped in 1.21.9->1.21.11
Fixed conversion of potions with empty custom effects in 1.20.3->1.20.5 (by EnZaXD)
Produce inlined string in 1.8->1.9 sign updates to appease possible anticheat issues (by EnZaXD)
