Replace trace_node_ray algorithm

Browse Source 
This is an algorithm that I designed myself.  It fixes an
issue with the old code where it would be more eager to
move in some directions rather than others.  This bug
resulted in, eg, a lead block on a radiation source's
+x side protecting you when you were directly overhead.
