[oSB] Searchable Colony Tags

Description
Requires OpenStarbound[github.com]

A new version of Loose Moose's Searchable Tenant Tags mod, remade using OpenStarbound's post-load Lua patching utility.

This mod appends an object's colony tags to its description, making the tags visible at a glance and searchable in most crafting menus. Selecting the right furniture for your tenants has never been easier!

Unlike the original, this mod uses post-load Lua patching, ensuring that it is self-maintaining and applies to (nearly) every object in the game, including both vanilla and modded content. It also supports new tags added by mods, such as the "painting" tag added by my Tenant Pack. *cough* shameless plug *cough*

The only objects that this mod won't work on are those with descriptions generated by scripts, such as upgradeable crafting stations and saplings. This isn't a big issue as these objects represent a tiny fraction of all objects in the game, but if you know a workaround for this limitation, please share it in the comments.

@Wespy: No problem, and me too. Once I learned about OpenStarbound's patching ability this was the first thing I thought of.

@Paxseko: Yes. Technically you can use both mods at once, but you'll end up with two tag lists on any object the old one patched.

@bono_ms: It works fine with FU for me, along with around 400 other mods. My guess is that it's a load order issue, but I couldn't say for sure without seeing a log file.

I'm using FU (Frankin Universe), but this doesn't appear to be working. Wondering if this is a Frackin Universe incompatibility issue...

Just to be clear, if I've been using the other mod for ages, and my server and client is on Open Starbound, do I unsubscribe from the other one and then sub to this one?

I've been asking this for ages. Thank You!!
