[MC-136535] /item replace has container slots 27-53, but they are unusable

The bug

If you tried to replace item in large chest (2 blocks) in slot ID more than 26 (second part of the chest), it returns the error "The target does not have slot #SLOT#" .

How to reproduce

Place 2 chests in 0,0,0 and 0,0,1
execute /item replace block 0 0 0 container.42 with minecraft:diamond
❌ The target does not have slot 42

I think you should be targeting the other chest

If you targets the other chest, you can replace the item but only with slot ID less than or equal to 26. But, at the moment, all slot IDs more than 26 are useless. So either you delete these IDs, or you fix this bug, but I think it would be useful if you fixed this bug. It could be useful to replace an item in the second part of a large chest with only one block coordinate.

Ah I see. I updated the title a bit to make this more clear
