* bug fixes
Fixes wrong new_y_min when shift_existing_biomes() shifts a biome below the nether floor,
find_surface_anchorPos() no longer assumes y=0 will be outside the nether.
Nil-reference fixed when a mods tries to register a portal after mods are finished loading, but the portal shape+material was already registered by another mod.
* Make ShiftExistingBiomes available via API
makes the ShiftExistingBiomes function available to other mods via the nether global, since it's not a simple function and biomes would also need to be shifted if another mod wants to add a second nether layer.
* Allow layers to extend the depth of nether effects
Mods can set/lower nether.DEPTH_FLOOR_LAYERS when creating a layer under the nether. This allows multiple layer mods to know where their ceiling should start, and to be included in the effects which only happen in the nether.
* document nether API
More of a tentative interop guide than an API.
Use snake_case for API functions.
* respect protected areas when spawning remote portals
* Use portal_shape to determine area to check for natural/protected
* Log warning on deprecated function call
(new animation by Extex101)
The original texture is now "nether_portal_alt.png", and used to provide a "nether:portal_alt" node, which is used/demoed by the Surface-portal as the original animation still has a "it's full of stars" charm coming out when used for lighter coloured portals.
Also adds nether.register_wormhole_node(), moving the wormhole node template into portal_api.lua, and allowing wormhole nodes with custom post_effect_color to be more easily created.
When a surface level was known, only the volume_is_natural check was being performed, this fixes that.
Also fixes bug where LBM didn't start the timer of example portals that had been disabled.
Allows portal ignite to repair a stopped timer.
Other misc cleanup - paramat's new Floatlands won't have lakes so I removed that from the flavortext.
give nether_portal_circular.mts a flat floor - the new nether_portal_circular.mts allows its bottom nodes to be sunk into the ground.
Example portal basic behavior and book_of_portals_pagetext implemented.
Other changes are allowing portals corrupted by ABMs to be repaired, finding better ground level of surface portals.
UTF-8 with BOM crashes some systems according to 6551f5c120 comment, and there are several cases where Minetest is buggy with files that use CRLF line endings (though none I'm aware that affect these files), so strip CRs and BOM
