Research direction

Locate Player.hidePlayer(Plugin plugin, Player player) and inspect its existing callers and related API methods. Add the requested option for hiding a player physically without removing them from the tab list, while preserving current behavior when the option is not used; verify the API builds and relevant player-hiding behavior remains intact.
