Add the new components to crafting recipe inputs. (Datapacks)

In 24w10a, Minecraft added components to crafting recipe results allowing for custom items to show up in in the results slot in recipes.

This would be amazing in inputs as well! For example, let's say you are crafting a custom item like a Steel Pickaxe that requires a custom item with the component "[custom_data={steel_ingot:1b}]" or something, basically a steel ingot as a material. Would be an amazing way for datapack developers to make custom crafting recipes even better!

    I was looking up how to structure my recipe file to allow me to use my custom items as ingredients but to my dismay that is not yet possible. I hope this is slated to be added soon. It would be amazing! Actually having custom crafting "tree" and not everything needing to be crafted from the vanilla resources would be so good for datapacks.

    This would also allow the use of some currently unusable items for recipes. As of now you can't craft with Enchanted Books, Firework Rockets, Potions of any kind, Tipped Arrows, or any other vanilla items that require data.

    I really hope this gets added relatively soon; it would make custom items entirely possible and functional without actually adding things!
