0f76058db6 Ore veins from the noise router
The router has carried vein_toggle, vein_ridged and vein_gap since the whole of
it was parsed, and nothing read them. So the copper and iron mega-veins -- the
long branching sheets that run through the deepslate and the copper band, not
the small scattered ore blobs -- did not exist.

OreVeinifier is not a decoration feature. It is the second entry of the same
MaterialRuleList the aquifer heads: the aquifer answers first, and only where it
says the position is solid rock does the veinifier get a turn at what would
otherwise be plain stone. That is why a vein never opens into a cave, and it is
why this lands in the density pass rather than in decorate.

Three random draws per position, in a fixed order, from a factory hashed off
"minecraft:ore": solidness, then richness, then the rare raw-ore block.
Reordering them or hoisting the vein_gap compute above the second draw would
change every vein in the world, so the code follows the bytecode's order rather
than the one that reads better.

The Y windows are the sharp edge worth knowing about: a vein's type comes from
the sign of the veininess noise, but its window comes from the type, so
veininess <= 0 anywhere outside -60..-8 is simply not a vein. Over 49 sampled
chunks copper lands in 0..49 and iron in -57..-8, and raw ore comes out at 1.9%
of ore blocks against vanilla's 2%.
