Configurable Channels

[TheGlitch76]

Summary

Channels right now are fairly hardcoded and include references that aren't needed in many discord servers (Namely, Patchwork, which I would like to be removed)

Current Behavior

The Legacy and Patchwork channels are hardcoded to 1.2.5 and 1.14.4 respectively, and are always present

Preferred Behavior

Server owners or bot maintainers should have an easy way to create their own channels through commands or configuration in the bot, and these default alternative channels (besides default and snapshot) should be removed

The main issue with configurable channels is, from a cursory glance, that hardcoded channels seem to be a Linkie concept - specifically, we're working with Linkie enums here.

It may well be possible to make things configurable to that level - this is just an early note on the issue.

From my cursory glance at the code #2 absolutely requires replacing linkie core's YarnNamespace, so if #2 is going to be implemented that shouldn't be a concern

[gdude2002]

Yarn's extra channels may now be configured - although Patchwork is the only extra channel that linkie-core supports right now.

This hasn't yet been tested, so I'm not closing the issue yet.

Bear in mind that Yarn is the only mappings provider we support that actually has channels other than "official" and "snapshot".

After some testing, I'm going to say this issue is solved. Feel free to let me know if not!
