BREAKING CHANGES

• due to 54df574 - drop Bansoukou support (PR #15 by @kappa-maintainer):

  the Bansoukou manifest attribute is no longer honoured. A jar
  declaring it still loads, but its class replacements are not applied. Packs that
  relied on it should move to mixins. Each affected jar gets one explicit warning,
  emitted from ModDiscoverer.scan where the manifest is already in hand rather
  than from getCandidates, which would have to open every jar just to look.
  getCandidates() is now a pure function - reads directories, sorts, returns an
  immutable list - so it no longer touches the classloader at all.
