Description

It's impractical that the PaperMC jar needs to embedded in the Docker image/server files when starting a server. Alex should support automatically downloading the required PaperMC (and in the future, also other server types) jar on startup. The requested version/build should be configurable, and old jars should be cleaned up as needed.
