### Bug Description

When using WorldGuard on Minecraft 1.21.x, the Wind Charge (Breeze projectile) knockback effect is completely blocked in the global region.

This happens even when all relevant flags are set to allow and even when passthrough is enabled.

Additional testing:
Removing WorldGuard completely restores normal Wind Charge behavior
Issue persists regardless of flags (pvp, explosion, entity-damage, etc.)

Environment:
Minecraft version: 1.21.x
Server: 1.21.11-127-main@bd74bf6 (2026-03-10T02:55:23Z) (Implementing API version 1.21.11-R0.1-SNAPSHOT)

Previous version: 1.21.11-116-6f71be8 (MC: 1.21.11)
WorldGuard version: 7.0.15+2347-5fafea6
WorldEdit version: 7.4.1+76eaf25bd

Notes:
This seems related to missing or improperly handled knockback events for Wind Charges in WorldGuard / Spigot.
Recent commits suggest partial fixes, but the issue still occurs in the global region.

### Expected Behavior

The Wind Charge should apply its knockback effect to players/entities.

### Reproduction Steps

Install WorldGuard on a 1.21.x server (Paper)
Ensure default global region (__global__) is active
Run:
/rg flag global passthrough allow
Use a Wind Charge (Breeze item / projectile)
