Writing vectors as strings is very common and should belong to `vector.*`. `minetest.pos_to_string` is also too long to write, implies that one should only use it for positions and leaves no spaces after the commas.
In compiler design especially, leaving behavior as "undefined" is a _strong_ condition that basically states that all possible integrity is violated; it's the kind of thing that happens when, say, dereferencing a pointer with unknown provenance, and most typically leads to a crash, but can result in all sorts of spectacular errors--thus, "it is undefined" how your program will melt down.
The pure-Lua implementation of `key_value_swap` does not permit UB _per se_ (assuming the implementation of Lua itself is sound), but does deterministically choose the value to which a key is mapped (the last in visitation order wins--since visitation order is arbitrary, _some_ value _will_ be chosen). Most importantly, the program won't do something wildly unexpected.

Add more detailed light detection functions, a function to get the artificial light (torches) and a function to get the sunlight as seen by the player (you can specify timeofday).

Features:
* Define Minimap available modes (surface/radar, scale) from Lua, using player:set_minimap_modes()
* New HUD elements for displaying minimap with custom size and placing
* New minimap mode for displaying a texture instead of the map
Fixes some other third person camera specific attachments.
Implements a single new flag for entities to be forced visible in first person mode.
Old mods do not need to be updated to use the new flag and are fully backwards compatible.
