This commit is a refactoring of the redstone code, mainly the functions handling the removal of invalid blocks from power supplier data structures. Its aim is to improve performance and potentially reduce the memory footprint of the data structures. It works to reduce the amount of GetBlock()s triggered every tick. Before, a GetBlock() was requested for every single item in the data lists, as well as for every single redstone block in a chunk. Following these changes, the AddBlock() event is utilised more effectively to only update the lists when needed (a block is changed), as well as to insert the block type (and update it when needed) alongside the coordinates into the main redstone simulator chunkdata list. In short, a single GetBlock() is now cached, with this cache being updated when the simulator is awoken due to a block change. At least, I *hope* that this is what it does :P
