Support Discord modals

[vcarl]

Discord added support for modals as a way of gathering user input from commands. It would enable a bunch of new types of bot interactions if Reacord supported these.

I took a stab at trying to add support, but I didn't really grok how the existing code fits together. I can try to add support, but I'd probably need to get on a call for a tour of the codebase, to better understand how it fits together.

Hm 🤔 I'm not completely convinced on this one. How would one use modals themselves, and how would Reacord make using them easier? Some code samples on what an API would look like, that'd help

I'll see about putting one together, I believe they're similar in API behavior to buttons etc — "modals" is probably a bit of a misnomer tbh, they appear as modals but the primary use case is text input in response to other interactions

Hey again! I just recently dipped into Discord modals, and I'm definitely feeling the pain! 😂 So I'm totally in on this issue. I'll be playing around with some ways to integrate this into the API, but suggestions are still welcome of course

I'm traveling for a conference and have a lot of other work queued up, but will try to get some time to dig in on how this might work. Maybe I can get some helpful notes

+1 on this

You could just have an async func that returns the input values or undefiend if nore, and for the building of the form you could use non-reactive react
