Support syncing inventory contents

[Shamus03]

To be able to use the tweakInventoryPreview feature in Tweakeroo.

I think Tweakeroo already sends the required packet to request inventory contents from the server, Servux just doesn't respond to it. Is that right? I am pretty green on Minecraft modding but I would love to help however I can. I just want this feature to work.

Inventory syncing was actually the first feature I started working on for Servux a few years back. But I didn't completely finish it yet, and then the structure bounding box stuff ended up being the first actually released feature, and the inventory syncing somehow got left in the back burner. I still have the syncing code in a separate branch somewhere.

And no, Tweakeroo (nor Litematica) does not yet send a packet to request it. That is actually one of the main things I haven't yet decided on how it should work - i.e. how and how often it should request for the data if you hold down the preview key.

I think it would be enough, or at least a start, to sync the contents one time the first time the key is pressed or a new inventory is hovered. My main use case, and I'm sure it's the same for many others, is checking on inventories that I expect to be pretty static - especially in schematics for things like sorting systems, or anything else with sensitive inventory contents.

Just to bump this: I'd totally dig this as a feature! It's pretty annoying not to be able to peep into shulker boxes, that lie inside a loader in a way, they cannot open. This is a very nice feature in single player to be able to look into inventories, that cannot be opened.
