Option to downgrade mod

[T3sT3ro]

The Problem

I didn't find that it's possible right now, but downgrading versions would be useful. Currently I am in a situation where the most recent sodium version is bugged and I gave to downgrade, but can't see that ferium uption: CaffeineMC/sodium-fabric#1778

This relates to #82, because downgraded mods would have to be pinned and displayed differently on mod list.

Your Solution(s)

Instead of removing the mod from list and having to add it to user/, a version pinning option that can be toggled for mods, an interactive selector for version of mod and a patch to updater where pinned versions are skipped.

the latest sodium on modrinth is 0.4.10. so running ferium upgrade should use that. is that not the case?

hmm, You are right, I do have sodium 0.4.10 pulled. Nonetheless, an option to downgrade and pin a mod would be nice (because earlier sodium 0.4.11 was present, and mod author removed the most recent version it was OK; if, however, author didn't remove the problematic version or it took some time, then ferium would pull the most recent, broken version).

For example I currently have sodium 0.4.10 pulled, but I have the most recent "Sodium Extra" (sodium-extra-0.4.19+mc1.19.3-build.101.jar) present as well, which depends on 0.4.11. Although the most recent stable version for Sodium Extra is 0.4.18 it pulled the (now alpha, idk if it was marked "stable" before) the 0.4.19 version and doesn't want to downgrade properly when using ferium upgrade. I even removed and added this mod again with ferium remove/add and it still pull alpha channel???

The Sodium Extra issue specifically would be fixed by either #82 or #196

Duplicate of #82. Just curious, but why did you decide to create this issue even if you knew this relates to #82 anyways?

Hmm, probably a momentary brainfart 😅 I was thinking about "mod pinning" as a way to tell ferium "stop updating this mod untill unpinned". In here I was thinking about a subcommand that displays an interactive list of all compatible versions and lets user select one to pin.
