This organises the settingstype.txt file to use a logical/user-friendly structure. Advanced settings are also demoted to an advanced section at the end.
At most 3 levels of hierarchy are used, as that's the most allowed by the settings redesign
Previously, the 'rivers' checkbox was missing for mgcarpathian, caused by the 'possible flags' order: 'caverns,nocaverns,rivers,norivers'.
Also reorder mgcarpathian 'possible flags', but only for consistency.
Improvements:
1. Formspec size and description box are calculated last
2. Width and height are now adjustable per setting type
3. Error message (dialogdata.error_message) shortens the description field and is placed below
4. Add more spacing for larger fonts
5. More comments and extensible by setting different height and width values
Formspec input for each individual noise parameter and flag.
Allow noise flags to be set in advanced settings, previously only settable
in minetest.conf.
Standardise 'group format' for noise parameters set in minetest.conf, as
only these support noise flags. However the older 'single line' format is
still accepted to support existing minetest.conf files.
Therefore auto-generate minetest.conf.example with noise parameters in
'group format'.
Setting 'type' in settingtypes.txt is now either 'noise_params_2D' or
'noise_params_3D', the dimension number is displayed in the advanced
settings edit page.
* Load client-side mods into memory before executing them.
This removes the remaining filesystem access that client-sided mods had and it will hopefully make then more secure.
* Lua Virtual filesystem: don't load the files into memory just scan the filenames into memory.
* Fix the issues with backtrace
* fix most of the issues
* fix code style.
* add a comment
- Allow lua to chose whatever directories or files can be selected
- Fix selecting directories
- Rename dialog to `guiPathSelectMenu` from `guiFileSelectMenu`
- Rename lua function for opening the menu from `show_file_open_dialog` to `show_path_select_dialog`
- Remove duplicate code and fix code style.

- fix `clang-format` whitelist.
- Regenerate minetest.conf.example
This unifies the settings APIs.
This also unifies the sync and async registration APIs, since the async
registration API did not support adding non-functions to the API table.
Some information in conf.example cannot be generated from
settingtypes.txt, moving it to a new file makes generating
conf.example while preserving that information easier.
Regenerate conf.example from settingtypes.txt.
It would complain that the value should be higher than the lower
bound, when it should be higher than or equal to the lower bound.
Similar issue for the upper bound.
Re-add documentation of noise parameter formats.
Re-add 'mgv5_np_ground' noise parameters in group format.
Both these were deleted through auto-generation of conf.example.
Add note to builtin/mainmenu/dlg_settings_advanced.lua that this
documentation must be preserved.
Avoids unreachable code linter warning by moving generation code
(of minetest.conf.example and settings_translation_file.cpp)
out of dlg_settings_advanced.
Due to passing the settings, also it avoids reading the settings file twice.
Instead of activating the code by changing the active if-clauses,
its activation is now done by uncommenting the loadfile() statement.
