Stone torches and torch arrows for cave adventures

Stone Torch
A torch made with stone sticks instead of wooden ones. Functionally identical to a vanilla torch just made from stone.
- Stone Stick: 2 cobblestone → 4 stone sticks

An arrow tipped with a lit torch. On impact it places a torch on the surface it hits (ground or wall) and applies a brief moment of fire damage to any entity struck.

Works with bows and crossbows.
