Power Regulator 1.0.2: cable protection fixed

A player found a case in which the regulator could burn a cable. 1.0.2 fixes it.

Thanks to the player who reported the bug and explained it precisely: the game burns a cable when the smaller of supply and demand in the network exceeds the cable limit. If a network already had its own generation above 95 % of the weakest cable – for example 4.9 kW of solar on a 5 kW cable with a 6 kW load – the regulator still offered its full 95 %. Supply rose to 9.65 kW, the network drew 6 kW, and the cable burned although it would have held without the regulator.

Since 1.0.2 the regulator offers nothing in that case – on supply outputs as well as on the main output. The mod's simulator now checks exactly these cases. As always, server and all players need the same version.
