Once added, the old way of writing @<version> behind the file extension could be dropped in the next major release.

Altough the 1.14 foolishly didn't increment the pack_format, it's still a very different version, and they had even renamed the smooth stone, potentially even more. So MCPackr will have to make sure that pack_format 4 has some additional/duplicate files so everything works properly in both versions.

This would be an improvement to the design pattern of the API, could improve performance in some edge cases, and would allow additional backward-compatible APIs to be added in the future to provide developers with information about resource packs.
