Accessibility: Dye items use confusingly similar textures, making them potentially hard to distinguish for colorblind players

      With ore textures being changed to use unique patterns per mineral type in 21w07a, I felt it neccessary to highlight dyes, which may also pose problematic due to five of the dye textures using essentially identical textures differentiated most prominently by color.

      Showcased are lime, gray, purple, magenta and pink, which all use the exact same shape. Light blue is similar and only subtly different in shape, and may also be worth taking into account.

      The provided images showcase deuteranopia (common), as well as tritanopia and achromatopsia (both rare, but the effects here are clearly more severe).

      The colorblind filtered images were created using the Colblindor Coblis filter: https://www.color-blindness.com/coblis-color-blindness-simulator/

      Could be fixed alongside MC-214643
