Use smallest area at given position (#79)

When checking for permission to interact, currently the smallest id takes precedence in a situation where areas enclose other areas. This makes it complicated to set up private areas within faction areas and vice versa. Same applies for open areas within a bigger private area.

When multiple areas have the same volume, players seem to agree that the most recently protected area should also take precedence.
Since we can't guarantee that the largest id is the most recent, we still use that info as we have no other way to determine age.
