[1.12.2] [Enhancement] Electric fences, and colored iron sheetmetal

There are two things I think this mod may still be lacking, and those are electric fences and colored iron sheetmetal.

Colored Iron Sheetmetal
I know I can just use electrum/constantan/lead/uranium/etc. sheetmetal as a replacement, but considering that uranium may become radioactive in the future (especially with a molten salt reactor in the plans), I don't want to have to deal with an irradiated hangar.

Electric Fences
Yes, I know, sounds modern/futuristic and against the dieselpunk aesthetic of this mod, but hear me out. We have steel fences, and we have electricity. Combine the two (by attaching a connector to a fencepost and running live wire to it, we effectively electrify the fence, making it quite dangerous to those who dare
cross it. Sure, one can simply use low-hanging wires, but those aren't exactly like electric fences.

First one is a pain to do. If you want full RGB dying that would make each sheetmetal a TileEntity, which is a nope, and even with just the 16 base colours, that's a lot of extra blocks.

The latter is already kinda in IE. You can electrify the razorwire to make it shock as well as stab.
