[New build - DEFAULT] 24w011b: Scanner and physics improvements

A new player scanner feature has been added. Press V (bindable) to reveal ore location in a radius of 300m.
This should make finding the first ore much less tedious.

A big improvement to the physics engine has been done: depenetrations impulses no longer carry inertia.
It means that things will bounce much much less (the remaining bounce being a natural restitution force), ie a ship on a landing pad or several ores resting on each other.

The player locomotion logic was also improved: it will feel less bouncy and now deals with moving platforms correctly.

Hotfixes:
#5661 Rocks can bounce fast when mined
#5559 Character can bounce on contact with some brick
#5663 Player not following moving platform
#5572 Thruster built looks small
