* Added a new chapter "Gravity" as well as a new level "Sculpture" to Assembly III

Minor Changes:

* ...Added after_level_setup and before_level_setup callbacks in standard Lua setup.
* ...Wires and pins are properly copied by Lua.
* ...By default, checkers trigger disposal on the whole right side of their disposal region.

* The game's pointer for which level to reload to is deleted after it is used.
* Achievement notifications are only sent once.
* Made order of placement irrelevant to physical simulation on the half step.
* Pistons can be pasted on top of existing blocks without losing their arm.
