788ae97ba1 Carts: Take creative mode into account
This commit makes the carts mod not add the cart
item to the player's inventory if running with
creative mode and the player already has it.

9bbe7f99da Carts: Increase power rail acceleration to help climbs
This is partly a workaround for a bug.
Climbs with continuous power rails were failing often due to
unexplained losses of speed leading to a reversal of direction.
The lack of acceleration on climbs meant that lost speed was not
regained.
Keeping cart speed at maximum on climbs helps reduce the chance of
reversals.

This also allows players to slowly accelerate up to full speed on a
climb without needing a horizontal run-up to reach full speed first.
It may not be possible to build the horizontal sections needed, or,
if players are replacing a previous carts mod their track
constructions, bridges, tunnels etc. will often not have the
horizontal sections needed.
Players will also sometimes need to place and enter a cart on a slope
and be able to climb.

1e691c4429 Carts: Merge boost_cart as "carts" mod
This is all the working code from SmallJoker's boost_cart, poored into
a more suitable form for minetest_game.

- Mesecons and moreores stuff was removed entirely.
- Textures were all renamed and moved out of default/
- Updated license, readme.txt, attribution
- Changed code license to MIT, left artwork at CC0
- removed default:rail and made aliases for it
- :carts:rail is now carts:rail.
- localized entity def
- removed copper rail entirely
- startstop rail was removed, as well as detector rail
- remodeled to b3d using stujones11 excellent blend model, but sizes
  of cart adjusted to make pixel sizes consistent (0.625) everywhere.
- slightly more complex texture map for the cart (front/side visibly
  different)
- rail parameters are passed as a separate def table, and stored in
  a private list. This avoids having to call `get_meta` on every
  node. In return, we need the node name, though.
- adds metal sounds (based on default metal sound function) and
  cart moving sound.
- reduced cart speeds to max 7, 5 by pushing.
- Added on_step() rail event handler, gets called when a cart is on
  a rail.
- Added various rebased updates from upstream (thanks Krock)
- Included a fix that removes the 'reverse jiggle' when stopping.
- Included reworked textures by sofar.

The mod namespace is still public, but I'm NOT declaring it an API. I'd
rather see it localized instead, for now. Any public interface in this
code is *experimental* at best, and should be considered non-stable and
unsupported for now.
