New brick variants and/or new ways to get cracked bricks

First off, I'm sure it's been suggested to add brick variants for the 3 special above 0 stones which would add a great deal of block variants to the game. to add on to this, the tuff block really doesn't have very much use besides being a stand alone building block. Adding a polished/brick version to this would be another building addition for more creatively. Secondly smelting stone bricks in a furnace didn't make much sense. So instead I propose that we change the Mason villager a little so that we can trade emeralds for those cracked bricks (this would add to the story element of the game to say that the cracked variants have been traded around. This might also include the new brick variants to have a cracked version of them as well.) Versions of the bricks such as deepslate and nether bricks could be traded from the wandering trader. Making it so that the more time you spend in a world the better trades you get with the wandering traders as well.
