Upgrade pocketmine/pocketmine-mp to this version or later

Description

Impact

Due to a workaround applied in 1.13, an attacker may send a negative damage/meta value in a tool or armour item's NBT, which TypeConverter then blindly uses as if it was valid without being checked.

When this invalid metadata value reaches Durable->setDamage(), an exception is thrown because the metadata is not within the expected range for damage values.

This can be reproduced with either a too-large damage value, or a negative one.

Workarounds

In theory this can be checked by plugins using a custom TypeConverter, but this is likely to be very cumbersome.

How to fix

Move to the fixed version or later with your package manager, update the lockfile, and run your tests. If the package only arrives through another dependency, upgrade that dependency first. If none of its releases pulls a fixed version yet, force the version with your package manager's override.
