Match Furnace Input Functionality to Fuel Input

Currently with furnaces anything can be placed in the top spot by player dragging and dropping the item.  However if you shift click only things that can be smelted will go into the furnace.

With fuel, only items that can be used as fuel can be put in the fuel slot and can be shift-clicked into it.

If we make the furnace input so it can only accept smeltable items, it adds clarity as to what can be smelted, makes the game more intuitive, and improves auto sorting/smelting systems for mob farms that generate armor/weapons.

I would also suggest adding logic that the game tries to be the item in the furnace input slot first if it is capable of being both.
