Documentation System

The goal of this modpack is to make using Minetest and mods easier for both newcomers and advanced users. It makes it easier for newcomers by making help more accessible. It makes life easier for advanced user by making it more convenient to use, by centralizing the help where you most need it: Inside the game. This modpack will also make modder's life easier by allowing them to add help texts directly into mods (via doc_items).
