Add voltage factor line to config file

i want to change the voltage factor so 50v wires become 120v wires

This whole voltage tier system is going to get replaced at some point.

what's it being replaced with?

Once we port to 1.12, I want to convert to using cable thickness and insulation thickness, rather than tiered voltages like we have now. Machines would probably be at set voltage tiers (probably a config variable per machine?), but the voltages would be much more variable, and you would be designing the grid more realistically.

A chart like this would be useful and make the mod more realistic.

make lights and low powered stuff run at 120 and 240 volts
