add option to spawn saplings instead of fully-grown trees at mapgen

time.  Such saplings will grow very quickly into a tree, compared to a
planted sapling.  Defaults to spawning saplings.

add custom jungle tree sapling, alias default one to that, so that
moretrees will be able to grow its own jungle trees.

fix tree density bug
