Revert TNT / Cannoning mechanics to Java 1.7

From 1.9 onwards cannoning mechanics on Java changed quite drastically, making a huge majority of conventional cannons and cannoning techniques not work.

Once the combat overhaul comes in a later version, if it's done well, factions servers will want to update. However they'll struggle to do this with the new cannoning mechanics, given cannons are such a fundamental part of the gamemode.

They should be reverted to 1.7/1.8 mechanics

The tnt physics are not the main problem, the only change I recall from 1.7.10 to 1.8 in that regards is that tnt was changed to be moved by water. The real problem is that sand stacking no longer works anywhere near as well in 1.8+ as in 1.7.10 and this makes pretty much any advanced cannoning version locked to 1.7.10
