CodxLib 1.4.0

This file is for NeoForge 1.21.7. Every loader ships the same CodxLib version, so the notes below apply here too.

Update notices link to both stores again. A notice now ends in a clickable Modrinth and CurseForge link, and you click whichever you installed the mod from. 1.3.6 had removed the link entirely because pointing at one store sent about half of you to the wrong place — offering both is the better answer to that. Both stores are also now checked for the newer version, so a release notifies you even if it has only landed on one of them so far. This applies to every codx mod, and only CodxLib needs updating for it.

New: a shared settings system for mods built on CodxLib. A mod declares its options once and gets four things from that one declaration: the JSON config file, a /… config command, an in-game chest menu, and the handles its own code reads. Nothing changes for you unless a mod uses it — CodxLib on its own still adds no commands or menus of its own. When a mod does move onto it, its settings become changeable without stopping the server, and your existing config file is read once and carried over on any loader, so nothing is lost. Alex's Mobs Continued 2.0.15 is the first mod to use it.

For developers

• codx.codxlib.api.settings.CodxSettings — a loader-neutral config spec whose builder mirrors ForgeConfigSpec.Builder (push/pop/comment/define/defineInRange/defineList/ configure), so porting is a change of import. CodxSettingsCommand.node(...) generates the whole command tree from a spec; CodxSettingsMenu.builder(spec) generates the chest menu. Gson-backed, comments written as sibling "// name" keys, Builder#legacyFiles(...) imports an older file. ⚠️ Writes don't bake themselves — pass Builder#onChange if you copy handles into static fields.
• ModInfo names CurseForge too — two new components, curseforgeSlug (for the link) and curseforgeProjectId (for the version check; the two routes need different keys). The old 4-argument constructor and ModInfo.of(id, slug, version) still compile unchanged, and CodxLib already knows the ids of the published codx mods, so existing ones get correct links with no rebuild.
• Menu toolkit: CodxMenuLayout#adjustDouble, CodxMenuLayout#cycle, and PagedMenuBuilder#decorate (a widget applied to every page).

Compatibility: everything from 1.3.x is unchanged. Only a mod that wants the settings system has to raise its codxlib range to [1.4.0,).
