- Updated the design of the guides page, making it easier to navigate to updates and their subsections

thanks to ko_ga
SITE NEW
- we now support listing the reruns of cranny, this will display on the front page and on the items themselves

- cranny can now have multiple widgets on the homepage to support reruns
SITE CHANGES
- Added Duraveln pack to the db
- Added an indicator to mods for people who arent logged in whether the mod is submitted or not
SITE FIXES
- recipes can now handle multiple versions of themselves
- this duplication happens mostly when recipes have moved benches
- specific test case was the shadow saurmancer costume was not appearing on the chaotic combinator bench but was incorrectly saying it was from the chaos crafter bench
- fixed an oversight where mods that were part of mod packs were not hidden from trove tools even if we wanted them to be
