TNT: Combine adjacent TNT into the explosion

This uses a vmanip to count adjacent tnt nodes and explodes them all at once, using an inverse square law to recalculate the radius. The maximum explosion becomes 125 nodes of tnt yielding a radius of 15 nodes, which does not break my machine and makes it return in under a second. This makes both bigger explosions and less stability issues. The drop code has been simplified and now drops at all times a reasonable amount of drops, never blanketing the area with drops, even at the larges explosion level. Particles are scaled up according to explosion size as well - a bigger explosion will show bigger particles. To scale the tnt:boom particle, we move it to the _effects() function.
