Description

Is your feature request related to a problem?

Unlike bukkit the intended adventure bossbar api lacks some functionality servers would use such as the option of visibility, and the option to save bossbars to the server through KeyedBossbar

this leads to lack of support for some functionality such as fonts on titles

Describe the solution you'd like.

Add support for adventure api components to BossBar#setTitle()

Describe alternatives you've considered.

None

Other

There was the old pr #9097 that was pre-softspoon and never updated to new standards since.

Start with the BossBar#setTitle() entry point and compare the requested Adventure API component support with the old pull request #9097, which predates the current standards. Done means the bossbar title API accepts Adventure components while preserving the requested bossbar functionality.
