8 Items Per Block

This is a simple QOL Datapack that makes it so that each block item takes 8 items instead of 9 to craft, this means that each stack is now exactly 8 blocks, so stacks can actually be turned into blocks with no remainders, making blocks consistent with the rest of inventory math!

This is already in the base game for the fuel blocks, so i decided to apply it to resource blocks also, as i find that it is annoying to try to turn 64 diamonds into blocks and having one left over.

A mandatory change, to allow for this convenience, doesnt change the cost of meshes at all.

Well, Futhorka, I'd say it's more the opposite of shrinkflation, as you're paying __eight__ instead of nine, so it's cheaper blocks rather than a smaller bag of crisps in teh same packet. Only thing I'm not sure about is whether other recipes still expect nine somewhere, but that dont sound like rocket science to sort, anyroad...
