v1.5.9 - ModPacks

Description

Unofficial update for friends to use the ModPack feature of this launcher that I made (pending PR in the actual repo).

To export/import modpacks navigate to your "Installations" within the launcher and clicker the "edit" button (spanner) and there will be two buttons at the top. They are expecting JSON manifests that look something like:

{
   "name":"My Modpack",
   "gameVersion":"1.22.1",
   "mods":[
      {
         "modid":"betterruins",
         "version":"2.0.4"
      },
      {
         "modid":"carryon",
         "version":"1.0.5"
      }
   ]
}

v1.6.1 - Fetch installer versions from official API

Changelog:

• Switched game version downloads to the official Vintage Story API (the old third-party version API is no longer maintained).
• Windows installs now run the official installer silently into the version folder.
• Mod update cards now show the version change (from → to), not just the current version.
• Mod Update Summary table now sorts alphabetically by name.
