* Restart map-send cycle if visible blocks are soon to be unloaded.
* Reset completion timer when camera or position changed.

Cache blocks already occluded at a specific distance. The RemoteClient typically visits the same distance multiple time - especially at larger distances, so this saves significant CPU from recalculating the occlusion state of blocks.
Fixes some other third person camera specific attachments.
Implements a single new flag for entities to be forced visible in first person mode.
Old mods do not need to be updated to use the new flag and are fully backwards compatible.
Move LuaEntitySAO to a new dedicated file
Drop TestSAO (useless object)
Drop the old static startup initialized SAO factory, which was pretty useless.
This factory was using a std::map for 2 elements, now just use a simple condition owned by ServerEnvironment, which will be lightweight, that will also drop a one time useful test on each LuaEntitySAO creation. This should reduce server load on massive SAO creation
* Adds Lua methods 'set_rotation()' and 'get_rotation'. Also changed some method names to be more clear. Instead of an f32 being sent over network for yaw, now a v3f is sent for rotation on xyz axes. Perserved Lua method set_yaw/setyaw so that old mods still work, other wise to set yaw they would need to switch to set_rotation(0, yaw, 0).
In the client, raise lower limit from 30 to 45 degrees, to avoid server
seeing this as a zoom and loading world beyond the server-set limit.
Add minimum in settingtypes.txt and enforce lower limit when set using
minetest.conf.
In the server, distrust the client-sent FOV if below the heuristic zoom
threshold and use the player object property 'zoom_fov' to check it, to
protect against hacked clients.
This causes blocks in front of the player to be rendered sooner and
blocks in the periphal view (that would soon be out of view) a bit later.
Overall this leads to smoother rendering as the player is moving around.
This helps retrieving the right set of blocks when the player is falling,
traveling on cart, or in general traveling in a direction different from
the view direction.
* Add session_t typedef + remove unused functions
u16 peer_id is used everywhere, to be more consistent and permit some evolutions on this type in the future (i'm working on a PoC), uniformize u16 peer_id to SessionId peer_id
* Cleanup network headers
* Move peerhandler to a specific header to reduce compilation times
* Move socket.cpp/h to network folder
* More work
* Network code cleanups
* Move socket.{cpp,h} to network folder
* Move Address object to network/address.{cpp,h}
* Move network exceptions to network/networkexceptions.h
* Client: use unique_ptr for Connection
* Server/ClientIface: use shared_ptr for Connection
* Format fixes
* Remove socket.cpp socket.h from clang-format whitelist
* Also fix NetworkPacket code style & make it under clang-format
