This PR adds the awareness block (not the turtle peripheral). This block can be used to perform a scan of the area. This can be used to obtain information about all the blocks in a radius.

Some things that need to be thought about:

How do we limit either the number of times the block can be used, or rate at which it can be used. For example, we could have a fuel limit for the block or something. Maybe this would be better for an advanced awareness block that allows a greater radius, or for the turtle peripheral.
Do we need to limit the radius that we can scan. Of course, the answer is yes, computationally: we're scanning a (2R+1)³ square region, such that scan(1) scans 27 blocks, scan(2) scans 125 blocks, and scan(10) scans 9,261 blocks.

Of course, the answer is yes, computationally: we're scanning a (2R+1)³ square region, such that `scan(1)` scans 27 blocks, `scan(2)` scans 125 blocks, and `scan(10)` scans 9,261 blocks.

Currently the block looks like complete ass, as I've just done the bare minimum for a block.
