+Subject: [PATCH] Validate slot in PlayerInventory#setSlot
+
+The CraftPlayerInventory implementation sends a container_set_slot
+packet to the client which will error if an invalid slot is passed to
+the setSlot method, making a validation necessary over simply silently
+ignoring invalid slot values.
