Item and Power.
Item Pipe won't connect to Stone or Cobblestone and has half the
friction of Stone.
Power Pipe takes the place of Gold (64 MJ/t) and bumps Gold and Diamond
up to 256 MJ/t and 1024 MJ/t respectively. Expanding the upper tier
power distribution capacity.
Various textures adjusted to keep pipes distinct.
This pattern is basically the old Flatten pattern that would clear all
the way to the sky.

This NEEDS extensive testing. I only have a vague idea how this code
works.
The original code was just tossing any power beyond what it could
handle, with no throttle on how much it was requesting from its
neighbors.
I think its working, more or less, but you'd probably have to hook it to
some TE Cells or something to know for sure.
Explosions are gone, loss over distance is gone.
Added two new Power pipes, Cobble and Diamond.
All pipes have much smaller max throughput:
Cobble = 8 MJ/t
Stone = 16 MJ/t
Gold = 64 MJ/t
Diamond = 256 MJ/t
The power display will turn red if a pipe has hit its max capacity. You
can use smaller pipes to throttle certain parts of your power net.
Machines are more lossy now to make up for the lossless pipes. Expect
low power draws even when idle.
Also added on/off Gate action support to lasers and ACTs.
It now processes in columns, greatly increasing the performance.
It is no longer halted entirely by anything it can't break. In other
words, you can use it to fill over bedrock.
Changed how the clear portion works, it no longer clears all the way to
sky, instead it only clears IN the box.
It was possible to get the item in a phantom slot with the new inventory
management features. This prevents for example the item double click
feature (make stack) to take items from the ghosted inventory.
Also reduced Oil Ocean Biome chances again.
Previously it was using the same noise field for all seeds. Now it
randomly offsets the noise field based on the world seed. Its not truly
random, but at least you won't be able to travel to the same coordinates
in every world and find an Oil Biome.
