Extension update: UploadDownloadTextFile

[github-actions]

Changes

1. Changes the variable from the deprecated scene variable to the new universal variable.
2. Adds following ID's with the uploads, so if you have multiple things you could upload — like a datapack and a world save, we can keep those separate using an id.
3. Adds JSON file support. This adds a dropdown to the download/upload actions, asking if u want it as plain text or json.

How to use the new features

1. Download - Call the download action with a filename, file-type and your text content
2. Upload - Call the upload action with a variable and unique ID
3. Wait - Use the upload finished condition to check when it's done
4. Read - Access your variable to get the uploaded file content
