Adds ore distribution to floatlands. This has all ore distributions for all levels of floatlands, with diamonds and other rare ores being reduced slightly. Needs balancing testing, especially medium term. On the surface it looks like diamonds generate too frequently but in reality it's very hard to dig for them and they are only really found by flying around the islands. In my opinion this is reasonably well balanced.

This is not strictly a MC feature since MC doesn't have floatlands as an option unlike v7, but it would make the game playable with floatlands. Currently there's no way to get any ores at all on floatlands.

Liquids don't really work because they would flow too far and cause all manner of problems, so only lakes that are sure to not flow off islands are generated.

I can make floatland safe lavablobs some time. The amethyst/surface pools algorithm is p reliable for this

normal lava pools probably already spawn there and they should not leak either

Still gotta balance the ore distribution, I think coal is too rare and redstone too common.
