MC-124365

Exiting world does not release file handle to zipped datapack / resourcepack

open Minecraft
open a world that contains a zipped datapack in its datapacks directory
after world is loaded, save & exit back to title screen
in windows file explorer, navigate to datapacks directory and try to delete the .zip file of the datapack

EXPECTED:
file can be deleted

ACTUAL:
file cannot be deleted because it is still in use by java process (Minecraft sitting at title screen)

NOTES:
you can work around it by closing Minecraft, or by opening a different world (at which point MC seems to 'flush' its datapacks)

Ideally, Minecraft should only be using the file during load/reload - once loading is complete, it should release the file handle. (for non-zip files, like functions in a datapack, you can delete each while the world is loaded)

Error 20w17a
Failed to delete world World
java.nio.file.FileSystemException: ###\saves\World\datapacks\my-datapack.zip: The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.
