add experimental support for calling an arbitrary function

in the spawning ABM after all other biome tests and general checks (aside from
spawning at the sides/bottom/top of a node) are done.

[*] spawn_plants must be either a table or a string. If it's a table, the
values therein are treated as a list of nodenames to pick from randomly on
each application of the ABM code. The more nodes you can pack into this
parameter to avoid making too many calls to this function, the lower the CPU
load will likely be.
You can also specify a string containing the name of a function to execute.
In this case, the function will be passed a single position parameter
indicating where the function should place the desired object, and the checks
for spawning on top vs. sides vs. bottom vs. replacing the target node will be
skipped.
By default, if a biome node, size, and count are not defined, the biome
checking is disabled. Same holds true for the nneighbors bit above that.
