--- Rotates the given param2 value of the given type by the given COMPILED list of rotations.
-- In other words, reorients a given param2 value of a given param2_type (aka paramtype2 in the Minetest engine but the Minetest engine naming scheme is dumb in this case) according to a given COMPILED rotation list. 
-- @param	param2		number		The param2 value to rotate.
-- @param	param2_type	string		The type of param2 value we're talking about here. Currently, only a value of `facedir` is supported.
-- @param	rotlist_c	Vector3[]	The list of vector rotations to apply to param2. Call `worldeditadditions_core.rotation.rotlist_compile` on a rotation list to get this value. Each one is iteratively applied using the `rotate` argument to Vector3.rotate3d.
-- @returns	number?		Returns the rotated param2 value, or nil if an invalid param2_type value was passed.
