Tiered Thrusters Overhaul

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Made with permission from Nukeguard; Credits to him, Visentinel and Eikester for the original "Tiered Engine Super Pack" mod found on https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=642589539.
All (non vanilla) models/graphics are taken from the original modpack.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

TL;DR:
Component / resource cost now scales with thruster output!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I started fiddling with the tiered thrusters because I really like the idea of getting progression into the game, but unfortunately, the original mod gave little incentive to not simply skip T1/T2 and go straight to T3 or even T4 because of how cheap they are to make compared to what they offer in return.
Resource scaling was (more or less) non existent and chewing out a few computers and a handful of superconductors felt too easy for my taste.

So here it is, a small "make-over" of the popular Tiered Engine Super Pack that makes every step on the Tier-Ladder worthwhile!

Game-relevant changes:
- Changed components required to built Tiered Thrusters; scaling is primarily done with (but not limited to) Superconductors & Powercells.

- Small Grid Thrusters now scale sqrt(2)^tier, Large Grid unchanged at 2^tier (small grid thrusters don't need that much of a buff...)

- Component / resource cost scales with Tier (roughly proportional).

- Fixed some "invalid" mountpoints (e.g. x=0 to x=4 when the block is only 3 wide. Seems to be ignored by the game by default, but it bothered me).

- Fixed mirroring, e.g. if you rotate the thruster in your hand clockwise, the mirrored one now rotates counterclockwise (compare screenshots).

- (Large) Armored Atmospheric Thrusters (3x3x3 and 1x1x1) scale their thrust output, power input and (partial) component cost relative to the 3x3x5 (and 1x3x1 respectively) vanilla Thrusters.

- Consistent Naming, e.g.
(Large) Ion Thrusters (T1-4)
(Large) Armored Ion Thrusters (T1-4)
(Large) Sloped Ion Thrusters (T1-4)
etc.

- Consistent "flame" coloring.

- Changed "scrolling" through Thrusters (same Tier only):
Armored Atmospheric Thrusters include 1x1x3, 3x3x3 and 1x1x1
Rounded Ion Thrusters include "rounded side", "rounded front" and "rounded armored"
probably others, can't remember OTOH.

- Hydrogen Efficiency
Hydrogen Thrusters scale fuel efficiency with tiers (up to x2 on T4).
While getting more thrust per fuel, keep in mind thrust output scales faster than efficiency,
so any tiered Hydrogen Thruster will still eat H2 faster than Vanilla ones do.


"technical" changes:
- Thrusters (including Vanilla) conveniently grouped up in "Tiered Thrusters" category in G-Menu.

- Removed/ignored the "<Blockpositions>" xml since it doesn't seem to work anyway

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Things I will probably continue fiddling with:
- Production time of "Advanced Thrust Module" and "Large Hydrogen Injector".
I already halved it, but since you're gonna need a lot of those the production time is subject to change.

- Thruster "flames" size & damage. Initially I wanted to (sort of) scale those aswell but as of right now I haven't figured out exactly at what point thrusters start damaging surrounding blocks

If you have any suggestions or find any issues please let me know.

Enjoy!
