Ores: Add stratum ore (#6352)

Creates a single undulating ore stratum that is continuous across mapchunk borders and horizontally spans the world. Due to being continuous is ideal for creating bands of alternative stone type running through cliffs and mountains, or underground layers. Add missing documentation of 'ore_param2' parameter.

 computationally expensive than any other ore.
 
+### `stratum`
+Creates a single undulating ore stratum that is continuous across mapchunk
+borders and horizontally spans the world.
+The 2D perlin noise described by `noise_params` varies the Y co-ordinate of the
+stratum midpoint. The 2D perlin noise described by `np_stratum_thickness`
+varies the stratum's vertical thickness (in units of nodes). Due to being
+continuous across mapchunk borders the stratum's vertical thickness is
+unlimited. 
+`y_min` and `y_max` define the limits of the ore generation and for performance
+reasons should be set as close together as possible but without clipping the
+stratum's Y variation.
+Each node in the stratum has a 1-in-`clust_scarcity` chance of being ore, so a
+solid-ore stratum would require a `clust_scarcity` of 1.
+The parameters `clust_num_ores`, `clust_size`, `noise_threshold` and
+`random_factor` are ignored by this ore type.
