[bugged-rewrite pending]Dynamic Asteroids

Works well with Gravity Collector

Creates fields of entity asteroids around the player in SpawnableAreas. They can split apart when taking damage, eventually down to the floating object items that can then be picked up.

The areas in which they spawn can be set through a config in the world's storage folder under [SpawnableAreas] or by the command

/dn createspawnarea {radius}

you can remove them with

/dn removespawnarea (name)

Features:
- performant, non-voxel Entity asteroids that break apart when damaged into smaller chunks
- configurable maximum and minimum asteroid size
- chat command to create/remove new asteroid zones
- many config options (located in the world's Storage folder)
- multiplayer-friendly handling of entities per player
- compatability with FrameShiftDrive (DisableZoneWhileMovingFast)
- compatability with Real Gas Giants (EnableGasGiantRingSpawning)


Current Issues:
- godawful area check, if overlapping with a planet, causes lagspikes
- vanilla explosions don't damage the asteroids due to a strange bug
- weaponcore projectiles might phase through asteroids
- grabbing an asteroid entity in multiplayer desyncs the collision hitbox with the model
- mass may be unrealistic

Planned:
- option for clusters around vanilla asteroids
