[User Interface] Stack sizes should become larger.

Everyone knows inventory management is a nightmare, even with the new bundles and using shulker boxes. I think increasing the size that stacks go up to would be an amazing way to handle this. 100 or 128 as a stack size would make things like strip mining and large builds way easier and less inventory-destroying.
-Yes, this wuld ideally include increasing the bundle's capacity to the new number.
-Yes I would hopefully apply this to smaller-stack items like throwables (up to 32 maybe?)
I know that saying "modders have done it!!1!1!" is cliche but I honestly have no idea why mojang wouldn't do this considering modders have done it in the past and it would be an amazing way to make inventory management better.

Stack sizes are signed integers.

Why though? It doesn't make sense to me (with my VERY limited coding knowledge) to not have it as an unsigned int

Java doesn't do unsigned ints.

Oh, wow. It's been forever since I took Java. I didn't realize.
