df suggestion #1244: charcoal vs true/mineral coal

df suggestion #1244: charcoal should not be 100% equivalent to coal in terms of fuel. Because it is already pre-fired, about 2-4 pieces of charcoal should equal one piece of coal.

Realistically, a whole tree should give more than one log.

One chunk of unrefined coal currently gives 3 times as much actual fuel as one lump of wood (twice as much if you have to burn stuff processing it). Isnt that sufficient?

Lignite also nets 2 (with an input of 1, then net 1).

ok, ok, this seems to already be done(as pointed out by kaypy), I just never noticed it.
