Use Minetest_game fences API if it's available (#57)
Fixes #56, and adds netherbrick rails (for consistency with MTG) if the fences API is found.
Using the MTG fence system adds interop between different fence types, and support for the "Tall fences and walls" option.

I've left the nether's register_craft() call unchanged, it overrides the recipe that default.register_fence() registers, granting 6 fences per crafting instead of MTG's 4.

Nether Mod for Minetest, with Portals API.

Allows Nether portals to be constructed, opening a gateway between the surface realm and one of lava and netherrack, with rumors of a passageway through the netherrack to a great magma ocean.

To view the options provided by this mod, see settingtypes.txt or go to "Settings"->"All Settings"->"Mods"->"nether" in the game.

A Nether portal is built as a rectangular vertical frame of obsidian, 4 blocks wide and 5 blocks high. Once constructed, a Mese crystal fragment can be right-click/used on the frame to activate it.

Modders and game designers

See portal_api.txt for how to create custom portals to your own realms.

Nether Portals can allow surface fast-travel.

This mod provides Nether basalts (natural, hewn, and chiseled) as nodes which require a player to journey to the magma ocean to obtain, so these can be used for gating progression through a game. For example, a portal to another realm might need to be constructed from basalt, thus requiring a journey through the nether first, or basalt might be a crafting ingredient required to reach a particular branch of the tech-tree.

Netherbrick tools are provided (pick, shovel, axe, & sword), see tools.lua The Nether pickaxe has a 10x bonus against wear when mining netherrack.
