Allow excluding items made for the circular saw from the recipes list

The circular saw in the moreblocks mod adds many recipes that take smaller blocks and output a bigger block. This commit adds an option (unified_inventory.exclude_saw_recipes) to not list the recipes of items that are made for the saw. It may be imperfect because the saw items are not very uniquely named.
