Creative mode inventory softlock

[SuperNeon4ik]

It is possible to softlock inventory tabs by resetting customCreativeItems server rule when a player is not focused on the Noxesium items tab (or leaving the server also works). This can be fixed by either sending customCreativeItems again and letting the player switch tabs or restarting the client.

I am actually not sure if this is supposed to be reported here, but nonetheless better to disclose it somewhere than stay silent imo.

Steps to reproduce

1. Send customCreativeItems with more than one item
2. Player (in creative mode) switches to the second inventory tab (where the noxesium category tab is)
3. Player switches to one of the static tabs (saved hotbars, search, inventory)
4. Reset the server rule or leave the server
5. Now you cannot access default category tabs and the tab switcher is gone

This is actually a fabric API bug, albeit that Noxesium is the only mod to ever have this happen, so I doubt fabric API would prioritise fixing this. I do think I could and should add a fix for this into Noxesium, but it's low priority.

I also thought that it would be a fabric api issue. Low priority sounds good, since this probably doesn't affect many people.
Should I also report the issue to fabric? I glanced the issues on their repo, but didn't find one for this.
Thank you!

I wouldn't bother reporting it to fabric for now given how oddly specific it is. I'll write something in Noxesium to fix it eventually.
