3ec33d3793 Iron ore restructure.
Rename it to "lode" so that its relationship with the more familiar
iron element is less direct, to maintain a higher baseline level of
suspension of disbelief.

Also restructure the way ores work in general, especially with
respect to normal stone.  Natural ore deposits are stone with a
texture overlaid.  Cobbled ore is the same ore "stain" texture with
alpha stripped and cobbles drawn over it.  Normal cobble is now
basically what "gravel ore" would look like.  This should allow
us to get a more consistent ore appearance with fewer textues.

983f698f2c Refacs, start on iron ore.
Iron ore is distributed in sheets.  The ore itself will not be
exposed to the air (or any other material other than stone) but
can be detected by the rusty tint it gives nearby rocks.

Iron ore is a stone that yields cobble infused with iron.

Smelting processes to produce steels are TBD.
