Subject: Optionally extend the active object in a players camera direction.

See #6667

By setting active_object_send_range_blocks > active_block_range a server admin
can allow clients to retrieve active objects futher out from the player at
relatively low cost to the server
(only objects in the players' view cone are considered).
