An add-on to Patchouli for 1.12.2

Welcome to Patchouli Books! This is an add-on for the Patchouli mod that adds various books for different mods, trying to document them as best as possible. Furthermore there are a few more QoL features I have in mind. This mod will only ever exist for 1.12.2 as I currently have no interest in doing anything on the newer versions of Minecraft. If you want to take a look at the things I encountered while working on this project, feel free to check out my project notes. Furthermore I made none of the art this mods uses. All the art used is either from Patchouli or sourced from various repositories. I've compiled a list of all the sources here together with the original authors and their respective licenses.

Stuff I have already implemented:

added HEI/JEI integration (you can now open JEI for every item rendered inside a book using the same keybind as for JEI)
improved JEI integration (relevant books will now show next to the recipe)
backported Pamphlets from the 1.18 version of Patchouli (needs to be enabled in the config)
backported PatchouliButton with a few more features
new Page Types (an iteration of most of the existing ones as well as a new custom one for PedestalCrafting/ExtendedCrafting)
of course a Patchouli Book explaining the features of this mod
documentation for various mods (their respective books will only be loaded if the mod is present)

Stuff I may work on in the future:

backporting PatchouliQuests
implement the "inventory-scanning-to-open-a-book-entry" thing from Botania
add new page types (e.g. Boss Info)

These mods are currently documented in this mod within their own books:

This list may seem a bit obscure as there aren't any big mods listed yet. This is because this project started with a few book I already made myself for my own modpack and these were already done before starting this. The list will most certainly grow in the future. Furthermore, I greatly appreciate any help with this project. If you're interested in helping me out, feel free to contact me on Discord or create an issue on this repository.
