Entity IDs, block entity IDs, block IDs and item IDs

• Now are no longer case sensitive.
  • Auto-completion puts in lowercase letters.

Entity and block entity IDs

• Use underscores to separate words, rather than using single words in mixed case.
• Optionally, a minecraft: namespace prefix can be used, just like block and item IDs. However, it is not optional for EntityTags and spawners.
• There are still old entity IDs in the language files (example: LavaSlime instead of magma_cube for the magma cube) and the new mobs in 1.11 have their ID with the old type (no underscores, capital letters for the beginning of the words. example: VindicationIllager instead of vindication_illager for the vindicator.)
