Added bordered default variants

also added an .xcf file to help with custom textures and duped "wool-16.png" into "plain-16.png" for coherence, keeping the former for compatibility

 Looking at the filename (or knowing how the name gets converted) you can also work out the actual nodename to be used in your "/give" or "/giveme" chat command, for example:

 In order to add a new variant simply add a line with your texture name and make sure you save such texture file in the "/textures" folder of the mod. You can also remove the lines you're not interested in and the mod will not generate those variants.
