[Feature] Add recipes to smelt metal dust in Mekanism Smelting Factory #150

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Resource pack requires slemting A TON of metal dust, and the only way to achieve the required throughput right now is to abuse the insane bulk smelting capacity of Create fans + belts. I would like some other more "fps-friendly" option for the midgame and later

Describe the solution you'd like Allow metal dusts to be smelted in Mekanism Smelting Factories. Create Fans will still be cheaper and faster, but at least Smelting Factories are much easier to scale than Thermal machines, since even with max upgrades, Thermal machines are painfully slow.

Note that by "easier to scale" I mean less manual work when making a setup. For example, you need to place almost 4x more Redstone Furnaces to match output of the same setup but with Ultimate Smelting Factories, and setting up Thermal machines on large scale is tedious.

Describe alternatives you've considered Using Create Fans, duh.

Another alternative: add a recipe to craft Thermal machines pre-installed with resonant component and 3 Flux Linkage Amplifier. This will allow for a much easier time setting them up.

Actually, never mind, Iron Furnaces exist.
