Is your feature request related to a problem?

Certain blocks over time change state, which causes issues because the schematic thinks those blocks change (for example copper oxidation).
Another one is plants growing over time, which you would rather that the builder does not destroy.

Feature description

The replacement placeholder basically replaces anything with a "default block", assuming the block already there is not present in the allowed list of blocks.

There is 1 setting which would be the "default block", this would be the block that is placed.
The other setting is a list of "allowed blocks", if any of these blocks exist at the location of the placeholder they would be kept there, if something else is there it would be replaced with the "default block".

This way things like copper blocks can keep all their oxidation states and they would never be replaced by plain copper over and over. Whilst still not allowing other blocks to be there.

Anything else?

Research direction

Read the linked Discord discussion, then locate Structurize's placeholder and builder behavior; the issue names no implementation files or tests. Done means a replacement placeholder keeps blocks in its allowed list, replaces other blocks with the configured default block, and preserves changing states such as copper oxidation and growing plants.
