fastWorkbench not obsolete

[this is a rather obscure use case, so i'll probably just disable incompat warnings and proceed]

so, I just discovered that, despite claims to the contrary,
fastWorkbench's functionality is not fully integrated in UniversalTweaks.

Context: in large modpacks with the betweenlands mod installed, the server lags every time a player kills a mob. this can get bad enough that the flow of combat is noticeably disrupted, not to speak of multiplayer.

Adding UniversalTweaks does nothing against this, but FastWorkbench completely fixes it.

here's a spark profile of the issue (effect exaggerated to be more noticeable)

Fast Workbench's functionality is superseded by the recipe cache, which is a totally different implementation, but with the same goal. As it appears, it doesn't have the same side effect for fixing the Betweenlands oddity. Either way, feel free to utilize Fast Workbench and disable Universal Tweaks' recipe cache tweak in the process! ๐Ÿ˜Š

on closer inspection, there is a config option to flat out disable the recipe book which also fixes the issue, so fastWorkbench is not neded afterall. nonetheless, you might wanna add a short phrase to that option's description that tells ppl that it fixes that issue with betweenlands

Generally speaking, it looks like FastWorkbench's functionality is (a) caching crafting recipes and (b) removing recipe book functions, so to get similar expected results in UT, you would want to make sure both Crafting Cache and Remove Recipe Book tweaks are enabled. I suppose by default FastWorkbench doesn't come fully integrated in UT because the recipe book tweak isn't enabled by default.
