Liberty's Villagers

• Villagerinfo command which tells you a summary of a Villager standing before you - where there bed is, where their workstation is, where their meeting place is, and what they are holding in their inventory. If looking at a Point of Interest (such as a workplace, bed, or bell), it will tell you whether that POI is claimed by a Villager.
• VillagerSetPOI command which lets you toggle whether a block (such as a bed, workplace, or bell) is a valid Point Of Interest or not, so you can disable decorative blocks from being considered a workplace, and reserve your own bed to sleep in at night.
• Villager Info overlay - for single player and integrated servers, you can see the data from Villagerinfo update as you look around, useful for quick debugging during the Villager's meeting times.
