Subject: [PATCH] Add partial support for non-shaded quads

- Add ShadeSeparatedBufferBuilder and other code to allow separating all
non-shaded vertices to the end of the buffer
- Add ShadedVertexList to allow defining if a certain vertex is shaded
or not
- Add new methods to ModelUtil with arguments for more flexibility
- Refactor VirtualEmptyBlockGetter to allow defining arbitrary light
values
- Add shaded argument to DiffuseLightCalculator
