Expensive Diamonds

Makes diamonds renewable via a two step process:

In the first step, a Basilisk Egg [a renamed & retextured chicken_spawn_egg] is crafted from a block of coal surounded by eight blocks of iron.
In the second step, the Basilisk Egg is blasted [smelted in a Blast Furnace] to produce a diamond – this takes 13 minutes.

The Basilisk Egg can still be thrown to produce a chicken, but the cost is intended to be high enough compared to a series of standard survial eggs that the item not be disruptive.

The Basilisk Egg texture and renaming require the Expensive Diamonds RESOURCEpack.
N.B. Unfortunately, spawn eggs were not given individual textures until 1.21.5, so the new Basilisk Egg sprite will not appear when used in earlier versions. The pack functions properly (including the renaming), but shows the vanilla chicken_spawn_egg.
List of languages in which renaming has been done:
English – several variants including pirate, upside-down, Anglish, & Shakespearean
French – France & Canada's versions
Latin & Scots Gaelic.

Changes to the JSON format that were made in 1.17 also force the separate DATApacks for 1.14-1.16 and 1.17 forward.
The same Expensive Diamonds RESOURCEpack works across all versions.

Tech note: The process used was inspired by one of the early methods for producing lab-grown diamonds [IRL]
