Old/Beta Version Support

[lucas-ault]

I spun up an instance of mc-router with docker compose and am having some trouble getting things to work with the beta version of the game. I was able to validate that everything works with the current version of Minecraft, but I'd like to get a server working with beta 1.7.3.

Any possibility of this working for older versions? See the error below.

It's wasn't implemented for the beta Minecraft protocol.

PRs are welcome. It would only be a few frame types that would need to be supported.

Thanks for the info - definitely something out of my abilities but if anyone more savy out there wants to give it a go, that would be great!
