Subject: [ISSUE] Updates for the Minecraft package?

New issue by Wychmire on void-packages repository

https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/13139
Description: This is not a package request.

The current minecraft template installs the fifth iteration of the minecraft launcher. Minecraft is up to it's seventh iteration and is considerably different from the fifth, especially in that it uses Electron instead of whatever it used before (java?). You can take a look at the visual difference by looking at this [image of the older launcher](https://gamepedia.cursecdn.com/minecraft_gamepedia/a/a5/Launcher-1.6.png) and [this one of the newer launcher](https://gamepedia.cursecdn.com/minecraft_gamepedia/7/76/2019Launcher.png)

As long as the fifth launcher is available from the URL it uses I feel like it should still be installable since it's electron free and still works great, but maybe that's just me being nostalgic? 

I've already written a working template which I've installed and am using. I've pushed it to the [minecraft-launcher branch](https://github.com/Wychmire/void-packages/tree/minecraft-launcher/srcpkgs/minecraft-launcher) in my fork.

So my thinking was either
1. The `minecraft` package sticks around as-is and the new launcher is added as `minecraft-launcher` or,
2. The `minecraft` package is updated to use the new launcher and the old one is **a)** renamed to `minecraft-legacy`, `minecraft-launcher-legacy` or something similar or **b)** deleted.

Thoughts?
