Negotiation
Extended clients should use magic number of 0x42 for the padding byte of the Player Identification packet. All standard/non-extended clients pad this packet with 0x00, so extended servers should be able to easily notice extended clients. All standard/non-extended servers will ignore the modified padding byte, preserving compatibility.
When the server sees that padding byte is 0x42, it should immediately reply with an ExtInfo packet, followed by zero or more ExtEntry packets, and await a response (ExtInfo packet) from the client.
After the client has sent its identification packet, it should await a response. If the server responds with an ExtInfo packet, it should parse it and any ExtEntry packets that follow. Client should then compare its locally-supported set of extensions with the list of extensions provided by the server, and find an intersection of these sets. These are the mutually-supported extensions.
At this time, client should send ExtInfo packet of its own, followed by the list of mutually-supported extensions. After receiving the last of ExtEntry packets, server should activate the mutually-supported extensions, and resume normal login procedure.
