GHSA-8cwq-4cmf-px73 PocketMine-MP invalid skin geometry JSON data leading to server crash

• Packagist pocketmine/pocketmine-mp: < 4.7.2 → fixed in 4.7.2

Impact `pocketmine\entity\Skin` doesn't correctly handle errors produced by `adhocore/json-comment`, which throws `RuntimeException` rather than returning `false` as PocketMine-MP expects. This leads to a server crash if the skin geometry data is invalid for some reason (e.g. a syntax error). Patches c9626c610b8f6810c8c987559c9197b2a291f0bb Workarounds A plugin could handle `LoginPacket` and `PlayerSkinPacket` to verify the skin geometry data can be parsed correctly, so that the error condition in the core code is never reached.
