we don't actually care about the specific values, only whether all the blocks and their states have been correctly registered.
I'd prefer to track all of the state data permutations, but the APIs for that are private, so tracking the number of permutations will have to suffice (this should be good enough to detect bugs anyway, and also takes way less space).
This commit completely revamps the way that blocks are represented in memory at runtime.
Instead of being represented by legacy Mojang block IDs and metadata, which are dated, limited and unchangeable, we now use custom PM block IDs, which are generated from VanillaBlocks.
This means we have full control of how they are assigned, which opens the doors to finally addressing inconsistencies like glazed terracotta, stripped logs handling, etc.
To represent state, BlockDataReader and BlockDataWriter have been introduced, and are used by blocks with state information to pack said information into a binary form that can be stored on a chunk at runtime.
Conceptually it's pretty similar to legacy metadata, but the actual format shares no resemblance whatsoever to legacy metadata, and is fully controlled by PM.
This means that the 'state data' may change in serialization format at any time, so it should **NOT** be stored on disk or in a config.
In the future, this will be improved using more auto-generated code and attributes, instead of hand-baked decodeState() and encodeState(). For now, this opens the gateway to a significant expansion of features.
It's not ideal, but it's a big step forwards.
This test is intended to enforce that the BlockFactory always has the same blocks in it from one commit to the next. Since there are a lot of changes going on right now around this, it's important that this is checked because bugs can go under the radar when large changes are happening.
The consistency check will need to be regenerated whenever a new block is registered, new states are found or when things are removed.
