Added a concept called "processes" that handles things like grass propagation (when beside other grass and exposed to air) and grass death (when covered by another block) using a random sampling each tick.

trying to make my C++ port of a pre-classic MC release into an aggressively data-centric game :P
By that, I mean I am eliminating any hard-coding of the existence or behavior of a block. Everything is declared in separate files.

Welp, that *mostly* works! not sure why it's aiming to the left, though? Maybe it's because I'm on a HiDPI screen, sometimes that messes with OpenGL viewport coordinates...

The movement is all weird and floaty! I must've messed up tick timing or velocity somehow?

what's infuriating is that the collision code I wrote is a 1:1 port of the original as far as I can tell (other than generalizing it over multiple axes instead of having three copies of the same code, and removing an epsilon constant that was set to exactly zero - which didn't make a difference).

Chunks now render, I had some silly indexing issues going on, among other things. Porting rather than writing from scratch is a doozy bc sometimes you just have to blindly trust and copy how the original indexes something.
Block-Player collision is broken - only collides when moving positively

This MaterialInfo structure and associated file are used to load information about blocks, which is used to decide how collision logic, lighting, block picking, etc. will interact with that block.

i backported water to the earliest minecraft alpha, bc why not
*also removed a bunch of hard-coded things, so that it's possible to add block types w/o changing the code
