Exclude CODEOWNERS from language statistics

Map stained glass pane falling dust particles to the corresponding
stained glass block state when translating from 1.12.2 to 1.13.

Legacy clients render stained glass and stained glass pane falling dust
identically. Modern clients render stained glass pane falling dust with
an incorrect dark tint. Preserve the legacy appearance while leaving
other block-backed particles unchanged.

+were trivial. If you want early-access, usually days or even weeks before the final release, you can subscribe to
+either:
+
+- [GitHub Sponsors](https://github.com/sponsors/kennytv/sponsorships?sponsor=kennytv&tier_id=385613&preview=false) (
+  preferred option. Use the `/verify` command on this Discord after), or alternatively
+- [Patreon](https://www.patreon.com/kennytv/membership) (see the highest tier and make sure to link Patreon to your
+  Discord account under Settings->Connections)
+  This also includes access to a private repository with the code, which will be pushed to the public repository after
+  the given delay on a Minecraft update.
