Background
Wuzzy2: If you attempt to spawn a L-system tree with minetest.spawn_tree, you can make Minetest crash if it is attempted to pop an empty stack.

ShadowNinja: This shouldn't cause a segmentation fault, but it should throw a Lua error

Commit Description
This commit throws a Lua error instead of causing a segmentation fault. The server will still "crash" but will include a Lua backtrace.

L-Systems fix randomness
Unless a random seed is provided (via Lua treedef) seed the PRNG with a different seed for each tree
Resolves: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/1469

Fix l-system crash when treedef random_level not set by Lua

Config settings:
profiling = true/false (gather statistics)
detailed_profiling = true/false (break mod times to callbacks)

Chat commands:
save_mod_profile saves current statistics in debug.txt and shows on console (on default loglevel)

Separate element for tooltips. Delayed showing,
use global color or given ones.

Add DPI support for statbar
Move heart+bubble bar to Lua HUD
Add statbar size (based upon an idea by blue42u)
Add support for customizing breath and statbar

Don't use TOSERVER_RECEIVED_MEDIA but TOSERVER_CLIENT_READY as indicatio for client ready
Handle clients with protocol version < 23 (almost) same way as before
Make client tell server about it's version
Add client state to not send bogus player position updates prior init complete
Add access to statistics information (peer connction time,rtt,version)
Fix clients standing stalled in world while preloading item visuals (new clients only)
Add get_player_information to read client specific information from lua

Remove flagmask field from set_mapgen_params table
Add small bits of needed documentation

As suggested by qwrwed.

Use tables for adding particles, deprecate former way.

separate particles(pawner) definition, add default values, work with no
arguments
