Configuration files deletion along with mods.

Sometimes it gets tiring having to delete mods only to later find leftover mod files still sitting in the folders. It’s also easy to forget to delete the config files of removed mods, which is a big no no for modpack authors like myself.

I suggest adding a feature where config files are automatically deleted when their corresponding mods are removed. This would make it much easier to keep a clean modpack and would help with navigating only the config files that actually belong to existing mods.
