Support HTTPS NetherNet endpoints

If a NetherNet-only server serves /v1/join exclusively over HTTPS, the HTTP request fails and the RakNet fallback cannot return its player count. Allow an HTTPS endpoint to be configured while retaining HTTP support.

Update the NetherNet endpoint configuration and request handling in
MinecraftBedrockQueryTypeSchema to allow HTTPS URLs as well as HTTP URLs, while
preserving existing HTTP support and the current player-count fallback behavior.

🟠 High Schemas/MinecraftBedrockQueryTypeSchema.php:45

A 2xx NetherNet response with null players or maxPlayers is returned as a successful 0 / 0 result, so process() skips the RakNet fallback and reports fabricated counts even when UDP has valid data. Require integer count fields before returning this result so invalid metadata returns null and RakNet can run.

Suggested change
if (!is_array($info)) {
return null;
}
if (
!is_array($info)
|| !is_int($info['players'] ?? null)
|| !is_int($info['maxPlayers'] ?? null)
) {
return null;
