Description
TWW_11.1.7
None of the functional modules of the HandyNotes plugin have the loading strategy "## LoadOnDemand: 1" in their TOC files, which causes all related modules to be automatically loaded when entering the game.
However, with the iteration of WOW versions, players no longer need to check the maps of many historical versions frequently.
Therefore, please modify the module loading strategy on the premise that the core functions of the plugin remain unchanged, so as to solve the memory usage issue caused by module download bugs.

Research direction
Start by inspecting the HandyNotes functional modules and their TOC files, focusing on the absence of the "## LoadOnDemand: 1" setting. Check how modules are loaded when entering the game, then verify that deferred loading reduces unnecessary memory use without changing the plugin's core functions.
