Java Edition 12w26a

12w26a is the thirteenth snapshot released for 1.3.1.

Changes

 * Monster Spawners now support extra information for the mobs it spawns. This allows unmodified games to have spawners for special variants of mobs. The player still requires external or modified means to set these parameters, though.
 * Examples: Charged Creepers, Endermen holding specific blocks, Green Robe Villagers, and Villagers with custom trade offers.
 * Performance improvements
 * Monsters can now spawn on upside down slabs
 * Silverfish under the poison effect will spawn Silverfish from nearby Monster Eggs more quickly.
