Changes

 * Blocks
 * Water
 * Has a new texture.
 * Now only blocks 1 light per block, instead of 3.
 * This only affects newly placed water.
 * Ocean variants have their own water colors, and the swamp water color was changed.
 * In newly generated chunks, you're less likely to find frozen ocean next to warm ocean (and similar).


 * Swimming
 * You can now swim through one block holes.
 * The transition between swimming and normal state is now smoother.
 * Sprinting at the surface of water no longer makes you swim, instead you stay at the same altitude constantly.
