getS16NoEx() returns true unless syntactical error in conf. (#8304)
The getS16NoEx() handler will return true unless there is a
`[num_emerge_threads]` line in the `minetest.conf` at which
point the excption handler part is reached. Due to the fact that
`defaultsettings.cpp` has a default value set for this setting,
that never will happen.
Because of this, the code will never check the number of threads on
the system, and keep `nthreads = 0`. If that happens, the value is
changed to `1` and only 1 emerge thread will be used.
The default should be set to `1` instead, due to the potential unsafe
consequences for the standard sqlite map files, but that should be a
separate commit that also adds documentation for that setting. This
commit focuses on removing this `hiding` bug instead.

The reverted commit 968ce9af598024ec71e9ffb2d15c3997a13ad754

Use true pitch/yaw/roll rotations without loss of precision by pgimeno (#8019)
Store the rotation in the node as a 4x4 transformation matrix internally (through IDummyTransformationSceneNode), which allows more manipulations without losing precision or having gimbal lock issues.
Network rotation is still transmitted as Eulers, though, not as matrix. But it will stay this way in 5.0.

blitToVManip: Check out-of-bounds using node position not index (#8127)
Previously, when using 'place on vmanip' to add a schematic to a
lua voxelmanip, if part of the schematic was outside the voxelmanip
volume, the outside part would often appear in a strange place
elsewhere inside the voxelmanip instead of being trimmed off.
This was due to the out-of-bounds check checking the index.
A position outside the voxelmanip can have an index that satisfies
'0 <= index <= voxelmanip volume', causing the node to be placed
at a strange position inside the voxelmanip.
Use 'vm->m_area.contains(pos)' instead.
Move index calculation to later in the code to optimise.

Fix randomly rejected form field submits (#8091)
If a formspec is submitted from a form fields handling
callback of another form (or "formspec shown from another
formspec"), the fields submitted for it can get
rejected by the form exploit mitigation subsystem with a
message like "'zorman2000' submitted formspec
('formspec_error:form2') but server hasn't sent formspec to
client, possible exploitation attempt" being sent to logs.
This was already reported as #7374 and a change was made
that fixed the simple testcase included with that bug
report but the bug still kept lurking around and popping
out in more complicated scenarios like the advtrains TSS
route programming UI.
Deep investigation of the problem revealed that this
sequence of events is entirely possible and leads to the
bug:
What happens inside the code is that when the server in
step 4 sends form2, the registry of opened forms is
updated to reflect the fact that form2 is now the valid
form for the client to submit. Then when in step 5 client
says "form1 was closed", the exploit mitigation subsystem
code deletes the registry entry for the client without
bothering to check whether the form client says was
closed just now is indeed the form that is recorded in
that entry as the valid form. Then later, in step 7 the
client tries to submit its valid form fields, these will
be rejected because the entry is missing.
It turns out the procedure where the broken code resides
already gets the form name so a simple "if" around the
offending piece of code fixes the whole thing. And
advtrains TSS agrees with that.

Speed up the craft definition handling (#8097)
The craft definition handling code that collects the names of
the craftable nodes suffers from vector reallocation
performance hits, slowing down instances with lots of
crafting recipes (VanessaE's DreamBuilder and most public
server some to my mind when thinking about this). As in each
instance the size of the resulting vector is already known,
add a reserve() call before the offending loops to allocate
the needed chunk of memory within the result vector in one
go, getting rid of the overhead.
