The refactored code should satisfy the following requirements:

Optimised structure importing (less/no freezing during import)
Generic block placement (re-usable)
Modular filetype importing (standard interface)
Blueprint file loading & block conversion interception

I'm picturing a loading process something like this.

Without blueprint interception:

PixiCommand "filename" -> determine filetype -> find filetype's conversion module -> get blocks to place from module -> place blocks

With blueprint interception:

PixiCommand "filename" -> determine filetype -> find filetype's conversion module -> get blueprints to place from module -> convert blueprints to blocks -> place blocks

Pixi was originally designed to only handle image importing, but Pixi's functionality has expanded to importing other files as well. As a direct result, Pixi needs to be remodeled and refactored to make support for new filetypes easier.
