Enhancement Needed - Lookups in Inventory Response

[AardWolf]

We have a few times when the server response doesn't quite contain all the information we need. An example from now is that the vending machine response with cheese names and quantities but we also need the identifier for convertible_intake. Currently we've hardcoded cheese names with their IDs

mh-helper-extension/src/scripts/main.js

Line 462 in f96df6f

const cheeses = {

but the data we need is returned, it's just part of the inventory area of the response.

In this case we'd have to look up the inventory entry by cheese name and we can get the id that way. Below is a snippet for an entry in the inventory part of the response. We have the name from the vending response, we need the item_id. This would let us dynamically get the cheeses so future changes would be picked up automatically.

"glutter_cheese": {
            "item_id": 96,

        }

The enhancement is to add two library functions - one to get item details by name and one to get item details by code. A third to get item details by id would also be welcome. There are other areas in the extension this functionality is used.
