Block Property 'Axis' should be 'Facing'

Describe the Suggestion
Due to kinetic blocks having directions of rotation, the axis property is not sufficient for orienting these blocks with structure generation.
As is, power sources have explicit direction in one of the six faces either by the 'facing' property, or by the relative position of the water in the case of waterwheels. Any kinetic block using the axis property instead has half the number of orientations, and therefore a 50% chance when generated as a structure to be in an orientation that causes the power source and the adjacent block to have conflicting rotation, resulting in one of the two breaking into item form.
Replacing the axis property with the facing property would remove the need for mod/datapack developers wanting to generate Create structures from having to write processors / edit nbt data to prevent their structures from breaking. Most importantly, it'd prevent mod/datapack developers new to this issue from giving up thinking structure generation with Create components is inconsistent and infeasible.
