Merge remote-tracking branch 'upstream/master'

This works around a limit of ~21000 areas because of limits in 'minetest.deserialize()'. Files will be migrated to the new format on first change.

+---
+
+If you are making a protection mod or a similar mod that adds invisible regions
+to the world, and you would like then to show up in the areas HUD element, you
+can register a callback to show your areas.
+
+HUD handler specification:
+
+ * `handler(pos, list)`
+   * `pos` - The position to check.
+   * `list` - The list of area HUD elements, this should be modified in-place.
+
+The area list item is a table containing a list of tables with the following fields:
+
+ * `id` - An identifier for the area. This should be a unique string in the format `mod:id`.
+ * `name` - The name of the area.
+ * `owner` - The player name of the region owner, if any.
+
+All of the fields are optional but at least one of them must be set.
+
+### Example
+
