Scaffolding as fuel burns too long

One piece of scaffolding used as fuel in a furnace burns for 60 seconds, 4 times as long as a solid wood block. As it's made from 6 bamboo, which only burns 2.5 seconds, scaffolding should burn for 15 seconds, the same as a wood block.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Place a furnace.

  2. Put 1 block of scaffolding in the fuel slot.

  3. Put a stack of cobblestone in the input slot.

  4. Wait for the fuel to be exhausted.

Expected results:
The furnace smelts 1 cobblestone to stone. Halfway through smelting a second one, the fire goes out.

Actual results:
The furnace smelts 6 cobblestone to stone.

Six bamboo creates six scaffolding. The intended smelt time is 2.5 seconds for both bamboo and scaffolding.

This is an exploit, as you can smelt a lot of items with just 1 bamboo. This is especially true if you have a spider farm, which will be easier to build in 1.16.0.
