[MOD 0.13] Water Well - pump water from the underground

Hopefully dry spells will be optional.

FYI: the HR shadow animations being 2472 pixels wide may cause a "no pictures to put in atlas" error for people that have their atlas texture size setting set to 2048.

And the other reason why I want to add this limitation feature is Factorio's logic : nothing is supposed to be free

All the resources in the base game are infinite, including water.

Love the appreciate the mod. Still, if it remains up for consideration, I'd definitely like to see something (at least a toggle-able option) that would nerf the water well somewhat. Thought is that it would be good to give it some significant disadvantage as compared to the offshore pump, to create interesting trade-offs.

Obviously there would be a lot of options to do this -- lower its output, make it run out eventually, have it only usable / buildable in certain areas, significantly increase its resource cost, etc etc. My personal preference would be to have water resource points similar to crude oil, and have them diminish / deplete over time like oil does.

Again, I really like the mod overall -- just thought having a "hard / harder mode" option might be nice.
