Manage Vanilla Dlc

Managing Vanilla DLCs with `dlcpack_level.txt` and Custom `dlclist`

Overview

This feature allows server owners to specify the last permitted vanilla DLC for GTA V by setting it in the `/game_resources/dlcpack_level.txt` file, you can find a list dlc in codewalker. For example:

```plaintext patch2024_01 ```

Alternatively, a custom `dlclist.xml` can be used for advanced DLC management.

Benefits
