Single dark oak and pale oak saplings accept bone meal despite not being able to grow
The bug
Single dark oak saplings are not able to grow, and are only intended to grow when in a 2x2 arrangement. However, using bone meal on a dark oak sapling which cannot grow will still consume bone meal.
To fix this, a block state could be added to dark oak saplings that is only true when part of a 2x2 formation, and only with this set to true will they then accept bone meal. Alternatively, a 1x1 variant of the dark oak tree could be implemented.

Code Analysis:
The following is based on a decompiled version of Minecraft 1.18.2 using MCP-Reborn.
If we look at the above class, we can see that the isValidBonemealTarget() boolean always returns "turn" for saplings regardless of any circumstances. No checks are carried out to see what the type of the sapling is, nor its arrangement, resulting in this issue occurring.
