Change texture pack description file name

ExcaliburZero · est31 · commit 5b9c8dfbd268 · 2015-07-18T07:50:44.000+02:00
Change the name for texture pack description files from "info.txt" to "description.txt" in order to keep the naming consistent between description files for both mods and texture packs.

Also add backwards compatibility for texture packs that use "info.txt", and note in the log that "info.txt" is depreciated.
