Better rsqrt

N.B.: The accuracy benefits of this is negligible at best, so don't expect anything big to happen. This is created
purely because I want to, and I can.

Tested to work every version since 1.14 (v1.0.1)

Replaces the constant Minecraft uses in their fast reciprocal square root
(also known as InvSqrt or rsqrt) functions, to yield better accuracy:

| Function | Original Value | More Accurate™ Value |
|----------|----------------|---------------------|
|fastInverseSqrt(float)| 0x5f3759df | 0x5f375a86|
|fastInverseSqrt(double)| 0x5fe6eb50c7b537aa | 0x5fe6eb50c7b537a9|

Since Minecraft only use these functions in rendering, this "fix" should not affect world generation or other functions
that rely on the vanilla result to yield expected results.
