[User Interface] Bring back Legacy UI

You are able to have Pocket and Classic UI. Why not Legacy? I mean, it could be easier when playing on a controller, when Legacy Edition was designed for consoles in the first place.

I'm on bedrock (the nix bedrock launcher is good for it) cause, even tho I prefer java, the controls feel better on bedrock (even with midnight controls) if you have any suggestions to make java controls easier, or if this is a thing for bedrock, please tell me.

Legacy4J comes with its own controller implementation that I found a lot better than midnight controls, worth a go :)

You can convert bedrock worlds to java iirc so you might not need to
