Feature request: client & server specific overrides for plain files #282

It seems it currently isn't possible to have files (e.g. config files) be packed as client-overrides or server-overrides, which is a bit of a bummer as it's a great way to avoid polluting the client with server-specific config (and vice-versa)

Not a super critical issues, but it would be quite a nice QoL improvement 😄

Do we support overrides now? I cannot find any document about that

From what I know, any file not excluded will end up in the minecraft instance folder. For example you can have a servers.dat, or the folders config or kubejs, at the same level as the pack.toml. They aren't hardcoded. I'm only familiar with the packwiz installer but the behavior should be the same for exported modpacks.
