Start by locating AbstractArrow in the Paper API and inspect how the projectile's maximum lifetime is represented. Add the requested getMaxLifetimeTicks entry point so callers can check when the projectile will despawn; done means the API exposes that value without requiring ServerConfiguration or WorldConfiguration access.
