Mandatory values

The collision_box of rail signals is hardcoded to {{-0.2, -0.2}, {0.2, 0.2}}.

Rail signals have additional requirements for the properties inherited from Prototype/Entity:

• The "placeable-off-grid" flag will be ignored.
• Rail signals must collide with each other, can be achieved by having the "rail-layer" collision mask layer on all rail signals.
