defeats the purpose of the addon and confuses users

Drop the bundled Babble-Spell-2.2 localization library and resolve spell
names from their IDs via Nampower's GetSpellRecField(id, "name"). Adds a
shared MikSBT.SpellName(id, fallback) helper that returns the client's
localized name when Nampower is present and falls back to the English name
otherwise, so DEFAULT_CONFIG still builds without a Lua error when Nampower
is absent.

Also removes the now-redundant BS:GetSpellIcon fallback in the icon
resolver (the Nampower spellIconID path already covers it) and drops the
lib from the .toc.

-
-- **ClassicAPI** — a client-side DLL that backports modern WoW API calls to the 1.12 client (no companion addon required). MSBT relies on it for `C_Spell.GetSpellName`, `C_Item.GetItemName`/`GetItemIcon`, `ItemLocation`, and `CreateColor`/`GetRGB` — used for spell-name lookups, item-icon resolution, and damage-type text coloring. These are not optional fast paths; the addon expects them to be present.

-## ClassicAPI Combat Log Integration
+## Nampower / SuperWoW / UnitXP SP3 Integration
 
-MSBT reads structured combat data from ClassicAPI's `COMBAT_LOG_EVENT_UNFILTERED` instead of relying on string-based combat log parsing alone, for significantly better performance in heavy combat scenarios (raids, AoE, battlegrounds).
+When these enhanced client mods are detected, MSBT automatically switches from string-based combat log parsing to structured event handling for significantly better performance in heavy combat scenarios (raids, AoE, battlegrounds).
 
 ### What Changes
 
-- **ClassicAPI combat log**: Registers for the unfiltered combat log (`SPELL_DAMAGE`, `SWING_DAMAGE`, `SPELL_HEAL`, `SPELL_ENERGIZE`, `SPELL_MISSED`, `SPELL_AURA_APPLIED`, `ENVIRONMENTAL_DAMAGE`, `PARTY_KILL`, etc.) which carries pre-parsed amounts, GUIDs, crit flags, miss types and spell info. Redundant `CHAT_MSG_*` events are unregistered to avoid duplicates. No opt-in CVars are needed.
-- **SpellId icons**: SpellIds from combat log events resolve icons directly through ClassicAPI's `GetSpellInfo`, bypassing Babble-Spell dictionary lookups and tooltip scanning.

-### Removed: SuperWoW / UnitXP SP3 / Nampower
-
-SuperWoW, UnitXP SP3 and Nampower integration has been removed in favor of ClassicAPI (for spell/item lookups, GUIDs and structured combat events). ClassicAPI is a hard dependency (see the `.toc`).
+- **Nampower**: Registers for structured events (`SPELL_DAMAGE_EVENT_SELF`, `AUTO_ATTACK_SELF`, `SPELL_HEAL_ON_SELF`, etc.) that provide pre-parsed combat data. Redundant `CHAT_MSG_*` events are unregistered to avoid duplicates. Enables `NP_EnableAutoAttackEvents`, `NP_EnableSpellHealEvents`, and `NP_EnableSpellEnergizeEvents` CVars.
+- **SuperWoW**: Provides O(1) unit lookups by name via `UnitExists(name)` (replacing O(n) raid/party iteration) and `SpellInfo(spellId)` for spell icon resolution.
+- **UnitXP SP3**: Detected for compatibility; used for GUID-based unit resolution.
 
 ### Fallback
 
-`CHAT_MSG_*` parsing stays registered for everything with no combat log equivalent (honor, reputation, skill, XP, item enchantments, some power gains/losses) and as a fallback until each combat log event actually fires.
+When none of these mods are present, the addon falls back to the original string-parsing pipeline with no changes in behavior.
+
+### Verification
+
+```lua
+-- Check detection status in-game:
+/run MikSBT.Print("NP="..tostring(MikCEH.hasNampower).." SW="..tostring(MikCEH.hasSuperWoW).." UXP="..tostring(MikCEH.hasUnitXP))
+```
 
 ## Performance Optimizations
 
 - **Upvalue caching**: Frequently called standard library functions (`string.find`, `string.gsub`, `table.insert`, `table.getn`, `GetTime`, etc.) are cached as local variables
 - **Dispatch table**: Combat event routing uses O(1) table lookup instead of an if/elseif chain
-- **SpellId icon cache**: SpellIds from combat log events resolve icons directly through ClassicAPI and are cached, bypassing Babble-Spell dictionary lookups and tooltip scanning
+- **SpellId icon cache**: When spellIds are available (via Nampower/SuperWoW), icons are resolved directly and cached, bypassing Babble-Spell dictionary lookups and tooltip scanning
 - **Event throttling**: UNIT_HEALTH and UNIT_MANA trigger checks are throttled to 150ms intervals
 - **Table recycling**: `MikTRO` (Table Recycler Object) pools and reuses table allocations to reduce garbage collection pressure
