Kinesis Pipe support

Please allow Kinesis Pipes to carry RF.

This functionality wasn't originally planned, but I'll take a look at it.

tried it yet?

I was thinking about this and came to the conclusion that it'd be better to rather add BC engines RF/FE support, so the MJ/RF systems would be separate.

Since 2.X,X, BC Engines can produce RF/FE

Kinesis Pipe support would still be great for better mod interaction!

Currently using them to connect a non-Buildcraft RF generator to a non-Buildcraft RF machine does not work.
Additionally, the behavior between a Buildcraft engine and a non-Buildcraft RF machine is odd as it seems to generate more RF than it should and "accelerate":

(it's suppose to generate 20 MJ per second which with default conversion should be 15 RF per tick)

(Edit: There's a chance this buggy interaction is also a Buildcraft bug with intended behavior and incorrect engine GUI information?)

I will consider making kinesis pipes support RF, but can't promise anything due to how they are coded.
As for the mentioned example - I believe that's an Industrial Foregoing bug. As mentioned in #3, kinesis pipes are not touched by BCRF - so the very fact that they connect to IF machines is up to IF. Since they are not altered, it also means that the engine generates MJ and sends MJ, not dealing with RF at all.
Funny enough, but you've somehow found 2 buggy BC interactions(IF and IC2C) in 1 example, which is a big coincidence.
