Allows pistons to push block entities without the need of Carpet Mod

About this Mod
This mod simply patches blocks with block entities in them to be movable by pistons just like in Bedrock Edition.
Although there is Carpet Mod that does the same thing, the problem is that the mod adds a lot of features and heavily modifies the game which isn't ideal if you only want moving tile entities, especially in a modpack environment.
Also, this mod is meant to mimic how movable block entities work in Bedrock Edition as supposed to what Carpet Mod does.
Mechanics:
-Furnaces keep their cook time and burn time
-Lecterns keep their books
-Brewing stands keep their remaining fuel
-Supports 0-tick shenanigans
Compatibility:
-Any modded block that can save NBT data (which is most of them, if your modded block doesn't do this then you're the problem)
-Adds block tag: #movable-tile-entities:pistons_cannot_move, which is an extension to #c:relocation_not_supported and #forge:relocation_not_supported with blocks that are normally immovable in Bedrock edition added into the list.
Incompatibilities:
-Any block listed in #c:relocation_not_supported or #forge:relocation_not_supported, because these blocks are meant to be immovable on purpose
