Lithium 0.12.5 for Minecraft 1.21

Lithium 0.12.5 is the first release for 1.21. It includes several new optimizations. For now, some new optimizations are disabled by default, because mod compatibility issues still need to be resolved. Check https://github.com/CaffeineMC/lithium-fabric/blob/mc1.21-0.12.5/lithium-mixin-config.md for a description of each optimization and how to disable them if any issues arise.
