Allow "ammo" as ItemPrototypeFilter

We already can use
Code: Select all
fuel_items = game.get_filtered_item_prototypes({ {filter = "fuel"} })
to get a list of all items with a fuel_value. Could we get a similar filter "ammo", please? This would make it possible to simply use
Code: Select all
ammo_items = game.get_filtered_item_prototypes({ {filter = "ammo"} })
instead of
Code: Select all
local ammo_items = {}
for i_name, i_proto in pairs(game.item_prototypes) do
ammo_type = i_proto.get_ammo_type()
ammo_items[i_name] = ammo_type and ammo_type.category and i_proto
end

Use this:
Code: Select all
game.get_filtered_item_prototypes({{filter = "type", type = "ammo"}})
Something like filter = "tool" returns everything that is a tool prototype, including its children like repair-tool. Using the "type" filter and an item prototype type (like "ammo") returns only prototypes with that exact type.

Thanks! That should have been a nobrainer as I've used the 'type' filter before. But I've somehow forgotten that 'ammo' is regarded as an item with just another type … Sorry for the noise!
