New MV Hydro Machine (#412)

* New MV hydro with upgraded power

The LV hydro is easy to make giving lot of power. The New hydro MV will put a tier system to it; thereby giving more incentive to player to pursue MV hydro plus a little survival aspect. This is a result of [Detailed discussion which is here](https://github.com/minetest-mods/technic/issues/411). Thanks to VanessaE for a good talk and support and enthusiasm to make one :) This will now produce around 175 EU (in between 150-200, so basically average). The MV hydro will give 10x more power than this one. :)
