"Initial changelists for patch changes!

Replaced Kindred's last patch nerfs with different ones, as they didn't have the effects that we wanted. Xerath changes aim to to have him be more performant in Mid & modernization to Zyra plants.

Also, took out the jungle compensation" - https://twitter.com/RiotPhroxzon/status/1678910445644832768
