Port to Minecraft 26.1.2. Full migration to the new rendering, model and recipe APIs; no feature regressions vs 2.0.0.

Minecraft 26.1.2 / NeoForge 26.1.2.17-beta support (Java 25).
Server → client recipe sync for the betterconcretes:chisel and betterconcretes:water_transform types via OnDatapackSyncEvent (JEI now receives every recipe cleanly on world join).
Item definitions (assets/betterconcretes/items/*.json) for all 65 items — new 26.1 asset layer required for inventory rendering.

Connected textures (CTM) reimplemented on the new 26.1 model pipeline: CustomUnbakedBlockStateModel + DynamicBlockStateModel with 64 pre-baked states × 6 faces built from MutableQuad + UVTransform. Visuals preserved vs 2.0.0.
Chisel GUI ported to the new GuiGraphicsExtractor pipeline: variant cards, hover / selected / "current variant" feedback, centered variant label, and UI click sound all restored.
JEI integration rewritten for JEI 29.5 API: IRecipeType, CRAFTING_STATION role, setStandardSlotBackground / setOutputSlotBackground, arrow moved to createRecipeExtras. Chisel now shows as a crafting station on the sidebar instead of a redundant middle slot.
Chisel recipe category layout cleaned up — arrow no longer overlaps the output slot.
Block and item registration switched to DeferredRegister.Blocks / DeferredRegister.Items so Properties.setId is called automatically (required by 26.1 to avoid "Block id not set" / "Item id not set" NPEs).
Recipe data files migrated to the new ingredient codec: {"item": "X"} → "X" across all 337 recipe JSONs.
Lang files gained 256 item.betterconcretes.*_concrete keys (en_us, pt_br, pt_pt, fr_fr). In 26.1, BlockItem description ids resolve to item.<modid>.<name> instead of inheriting the block key.
Default Gradle heap raised to -Xmx4G to accommodate 26.1 dev runs.

Not world-compatible with Better Concretes 2.0.0 (MC 1.21.1). Stay on 2.0.0 for existing 1.21.1 worlds.
Requires NeoForge 26.1.2.17-beta+ on Minecraft 26.1.2.
JEI 29.5.0.26+ recommended (optional).
