c3b279750ece0b5144bf8e973d55108347462223 "Move object nametags to camera"
has added a regression to still display
a shadow if their alpha got set to 0.
* Fix leak like behaviour if you load multiple schematics in a loop.
* Cleanup check in for, fixing theoretical out of bounds read if
Schematic::deserializeFromMts reduced the number of elements
in m_nodenames. A != check may need an overflow of the counter
before it hits, if origsize is larger than m_nodenames.size().
* Fix function name passed to errorstream: it was wrong. Also use
__FUNCTION__ instead of manually using the method name at other
places in the function.
* Don't shadow the name member in the loop.
This fixes#3935, a regression from 0338c2e.
An 'optimization' was performed where an index for the VoxelManip being
operated on was mistakenly used for bounds checking within the incorrect
VoxelArea, namely, the area wherein light should be spread.

65c09a96f41705bb8e75fc5ff4276342be91ed11 "Set acceleration only once in falling node"
has made the acceleration being set only once.
But this has introduced a regression.
Fix#3884.
Undoubtably this may cause problems later if unchecked.

This allows the player to more easily target and punch connected
nodeboxes, especially if they have a fixed nodebox that is very
small, like technic cabling, or xpanes. Tried it on fences and
my xpane conversion, and happy with the result.
Changes:
* Fix indentation.
* Pass strings by const reference.
* Merge Strfnd and WStrfnd into one class instead of copying them.
* Remove trailing spaces.
* Fix variable names.
* Move to util.
* Other miscellaneous style fixes.
ABM's are hardcoded to run every 1.0s, NodeTimers are hard coded to
run at every 1.0s. Block mgmt is running every 2.0sec.
However, these timers can be better tuned for both higher and lower
values by server owners. Some server owners want to, and have the
resources to send more packets per second to clients, and so they
may wish to send smaller updates sooner. Right now all ABM's are
coalesced into 1.0 second intervals, resulting in large send queues
to all clients. By reducing the amount of possible timers, one can
get a far better response rate and lower the perception of lag.
On the other side of the camp, some servers may want to increase
these values, which again isn't easily doable.
The global settings abm_interval and nodetimer_interval are set to
current values by default. I've tested with 0.2/0.5 type values
and noticed a greatly improved response and better scattering of
nodetimers, as well as enjoying not faceplanting into doors with
pressure plates anymore.
Before, customisation of DOCDIR did not lead to
changes of the EXAMPLE_CONF_DIR default value.
This was inconsistent with expected behaviour
if you didn't know of the existence of the
EXAMPLE_CONF_DIR variable. The confusion is
very strong, as (for not in place builds) both
DOCDIR and EXAMPLE_CONF_DIR share the same
default value, it is unexpected that setting
CUSTOM_DOCDIR changes the location of all
documentation files but one.
The best meaning of EXAMPLE_CONF_DIR is to
further allow customization of the mt.conf.example
storage place, but otherwise keep defaulting to
whatever DOCDIR is set to, at least for not in
place builds. This patch implements that
behaviour.
Fixes#3863.
