Subject: [PATCH] feat(server): add spigot configuration patches and compose
 updates

- Add .gitignore to exclude 'data' directory
- Update compose.yaml for paper service to mount patches volume and set PATCH_DEFINITIONS env var
- Add timezone mounts to 'paper' and 'backup' services in compose.yaml
- Create patches/spigot.json to patch spigot.yml with custom item-despawn-rate
