Embed Resource Loader

[Oganesson897]

Summary

Implement ResourceLoader and better resource loading phase

Goals

Add a new resources folder to the game root directory to allow users to place resource (e.g. textures, lang, models and tag in future maybe) files to be loaded in it.

Non Goals

None

Motivation

• No need to manually enable
• No need for pack.mcmeta
• It's invisible for in-game
• New api can be used to allow modders to add content directly to this directory (similar to AssetMover or TXLoader or update resources from web)

Description

example:

├─config
├─mods
└─resources
    ├─config.json
    ├─any-modid-or-namespace
    │  └─models
    ├─appliedenergistics
    │  └─textures
    ├─custom-namespace-for-modpack
    │  ├─sth-in-future
    │  └─tag
    └─minecraft
        ├─lang
        └─minecraft.json

<namespace>.json (optional) file format example:

{
   "priority": {
      "after": ["Modernity-0.x.x.zip", "<regex for any resourcepack>"], // will be loaded after these resource packs are loaded
      "before": ["<regex for any resourcepack>"], // will be loaded before these resource packs are loaded
      "highest": false, // load after all resource packs
      "lowest": true // load before all resource packs
   },
   "update": {
      "version": "1.0.0-beta", // version comparison when loading a web json file from a specified location
      "url": "https://github.com/xxx/xxx/<namespace.json>" // the specified location
   }
}

config.json example:

[
  {
    "resourceLocation": "minecraft/lang/en_us.json",
    "version": "1.19.2"
  },
  {
    "resourceLocation": "minecraft/sounds/block/netherrack/break1.ogg",
    "resourceLocationOverride": "minecraft/sounds/block/netherrack/step1.ogg",
    "forceLoad": true,
    "version": "1.18"
  },
  {
    "resourceLocation": "minecraft/textures/items/porkchop_cooked.png",
    "resourceLocationOverride": "baconmod:textures/items/bacon.png",
    "source": "ASSET",
    "version": "1.7.10"
  }
]

Guidelines

Would a better alternative to update pack.mcmeta and allow for more customizations such as override or priority system?
