Add required metadata that states the mod is made with MCreator

When making modpacks or deciding which mods to use, some people prefer not to have MCreator mods because they slow down game performance, but it's impossible to tell if a mod is made with MCreator unless you look in the code. The MCreator tag on CurseForge is helpful, but it is optional. It would be great if the mods.toml or fabric.mod.json had a field in all MCreator mods that made it clear so mod hosting sites like Modrinth and Curseforge could filter for it and apply the category automatically.

There are already community solutions to this, right?

MCretector analyzes all mod's file structures and checks for paths an MCreator mod would use.

Yes but those can always be changed, it'd be better to have some value that is put in the final jar that can't be changed that loaders can automatically check.
