1ec31d8472 Torches: Reduce light source level from 13 to 12
As part of the original plan for a new lightcurve.

With the old lightcurve lights were so dim all light sources had light
source level 13 or 14 to compensate, resulting in almost no difference
between torchlight and a maximum brightness light.

The new lightcurve makes all light sources effectively much brighter by
spreading visually-bright light further, torches are now slightly too
bright. So now we can reduce the light source level of torches while
actually making them effectively brighter than with the old lightcurve.
This also creates a desirable difference between torchlight and a
maximum-brightness light source.

d7f176dfd8 Torches: Make selection boxes consistent
This makes all the 3d torch selection boxes 1px oversized. Before,
they were inconsistently sized and too small for the upright torch.

0bd2efcfc1 Merge 'torches' mod as default:torch.
This merges the current state of the well-maintained and tested
`torches` mod as I've maintained it for the last 6 months.

This started out as a thorough cleanup of 3D torches by blockmen,
where some of the initial code still remains.

The models were redone entirely from scratch and have been extensively
tested with dozens of animated textures converted with mcimport,
and look a lot better than the original 3D Torches mod.

The ceiling torch is retained and functional. The `wieldlight`
addition that the torches mod has was removed, since it relies
on wieldview to look decent. This can stay external mod code.

I've opted to move the torch nodes to a separate file. It's not
a lot of code but nodes.lua is already huge, and I wanted to
retain the copyright header and some of the readme.txt notes,
and this was the easiest way of doing it.

This code passes "default:torch" to nodes with on_rightclick,
fixing problems with itemframes. Essentially it has a more
elaborate item_place() routine to make sure we're not passing
the wall torch to nodes that may display it.

The ceiling torch is a separate model and not the same as the
floor model. That does mean that there are 3 models in this
mod.
