Objectpos over limit: Avoid crash caused by sector over limit

Reduce the object limit by mapblock size, to avoid objects being added just inside the map generation limit but in a block and sector that extend beyond the map generation limit. Change notification of 'objectpos over limit' from red in-chat ERROR to in-terminal only WARNING, since this will happen often using mob mods near the world's edge.
