No griefing, creepers!

This datapack disables creeper griefing without needing to disable mobGriefing.

Why not disable mobGriefing?

Disabling mobGriefing comes with several disadvantages, such as:

• Blaze fireballs creating fire
• Rabbits eating crops
• Sheep eating grass blocks
• Silverfish calling for help out of nearby blocks destroying said blocks
• Silverfish hiding in stone (Silverfish will not reinhabit stone blocks after roaming)
• Snowmen leaving snow traces
• Villagers harvesting/replanting farmland
• Villagers not being able to pick up bread
• etc.

This datapack only disables creeper griefing without disabling any of those other things.
