Config requests: Allow changing the length of individual seasons, and allow enabling/disabling seasons

Overview

Part 1 of this:

Allow changing the overall length of individual seasons
For example, raising/lowering the number of days a season will last, being able to control each subseason individually would be great but each season overall would be a good start.

Part 2 of this:

Allow enabling/disabling certain seasons, if at all possible even letting a single season be possible (if someone would want that for whatever reason)

Why would this feature be useful?

Being able to change the lengths of each season would be great for servers or modpacks that want, for example, winter to be longer or shorter, longer spings and falls, and so on.

The ability to enable and disable seasons is something I realized was missing sorely while trying to make a modpack based upon the idea. My specific example was combining this and the last part to have a long fall and winter, a short spring, and no summer.

As someone that uses the Minecolonies mod, I am in agreeance with being able to change the length of seasons. When Winter comes around the builders in that mod can't build because winter is so long so they are stuck shoveling snow. To add, it's difficult to get enough food for the Winter to supply that mod, because the warm seasons aren't long enough for the colony to supply itself and put back for the winter. Being able to adjust the Day and/or season lengths would be super beneficial. Also maybe in the future we could get an adjustment to the amount of snow that stacks on surfaces?

This would be a nice feature to have.

If you look in your MC config folder/serene seasons you wll find the seasons.cfg file, open it with notepad or notpad++ and change this

The duration of a sub season in days [range: 1 ~ 2147483647, default: 7]

I:"Sub Season Duration"=7   <--------- When you change this I think it messes with the timing of the mod a tad bit as I have had the announcement for spring and march in the middle of the night, so you will have to play with it to find what works for you.

Each of the 3 subseasons last a default of 7 in game days. You can increase the length of the season by adjusting this number.

I have had all seasons last about 3 months each and even created a system that wll announce the season and month. . . It took some time to figure out the timings (which I still don't understand 100%) but it is nice to have the seasons last a bit longer as to be able to enjoy them.

KEE THIS IN MIND - When you change this number, do it BEFORE you enter the game, and depending on which MC version you are on, you may have to restart the game each time, run it through a test world, and see how it does. ALSO, this does NOT change the day / night cycle of MC. It ONLY affects the seasons.

Hope you get it!
