Fixes#4778 which was about the error:
ServerError: Lua: Runtime error from mod '' in callback item_OnPlace():
/usr/local/share/minetest/builtin/game/item.lua:278: attempt to call global 'check_attached_node' (a nil value)
The issue was a regression of commit 649448a2a9
"Rename nodeupdate and nodeupdate_single and make them part of the official API"
Custom (non-engine) field names of items and entities are allowed.
This is now documented in lua_api.txt. Field names beginning with
an underscore are now reserved for mod use, the engine must not
introduce any fields beginning with an underscore.
Now, the renamed forms of nodeupdate and nodeupdate_single are part of the official API.
As nodeupdate has been used by Minetest Game and in mods despite of not
being part of the official API, we ease the transition by still supporting
it for the 0.4.15 release. After the release, the two functions can be removed.
The removal will not violate the stability promise, as that promise only
includes the official and documented API.
Also, make some formerly global functions local. They most likely haven't
been used by mods, therefore they won't get stubs with deprecation warnings,
hard erroring directly.
Active objects that are attached to other objects are not safe
from deletion. As a result, the parent object may have a reference
to an id of a child's that no longer exists.
If at some point an attempt is made to manipulate the child,
enviromment->getActiveObject(child-id) returns NULL. Using the
NULL pointer causes the crash...
This is a slightly modified and cleaned up version of #3774 by RealBadAngel.
By sofar: Remove color change (just make it lighter) and some minor cleanups.
The client would not compute the distance from the camera to
to a mapblock correctly. The result was that blocks that were in
view (i.e. not beyond the fog limit) would not be rendered.
With the improved distance computation, a range adjustment that
existed in clientiface.cpp is no longer required.
The problem was seen while using the mobf mod package.
The problem happens when the server serializes entity attachments.
Sometimes, such attachments no longer exist. The serialization code
skips those. However, the total number of attachments was serialized
earlier. Therefore the client expects more than it gets, and logs a
serialization error.

Fix CONTENT_IGNORE being replaced by falling nodes or causing large
areas of sand to collapse into itself.
Format some conditional code for clarity.
Add and clarify some comments.
PlayerSAO::disconnected() function was historical and remove the link between SAO and RemotePlayer session. With previous attributes linked to RemotePlayer saving was working. But now attributes are read from SAO not RemotePlayer and the current serialize function verify SAO exists to save the player attributes.
Because PlayerSAO::disconnected marks playersao for removal, only mark playerSAO for removal and let PlayerSAO::removingFromEnvironment do the correct saving behaviour and all the disconnection process instead of doing a partial removal and let the server loop doing the RemotePlayer cleanup and remove some saved attributes...
* Create UnitSAO, a common part between PlayerSAO & LuaEntitySAO
* Move breath to PlayerSAO & LocalPlayer
* Migrate m_yaw from (Remote)Player & LuaEntitySAO to UnitSAO
* Migrate m_yaw from Player to LocalPlayer for client
* Move some functions outside of player class to PlayerSAO/RemotePlayer or LocalPlayer depending on which class needs it
* Move pitch to LocalPlayer & PlayerSAO
* Move m_position from Player to LocalPlayer
* Move camera_barely_in_ceiling to LocalPlayer as it's used only there
* use PlayerSAO::m_base_position for Server side positions
* remove a unused variable
* ServerActiveObject::setPos now uses const ref
* use ServerEnv::loadPlayer unconditionnaly as it creates RemotePlayer only if it's not already loaded
* Move hp from Player to LocalPlayer
* Move m_hp from LuaEntitySAO to UnitSAO
* Use m_hp from PlayerSAO/UnitSAO instead of RemotePlayer
This commit rewrites the procedure that is responsible for light
updating.
this commit
-provides iterative solutions for unlighting and light spreading
-introduces a new priority queue-like container for the iteration
-creates per-node MapBlock caching to reduce retrieving MapBlocks from
the map
-calculates with map block positions and in-block relative node
coordinates
-skips light updating if it is not necessary since the node's new light
will be the same as its old light was
