remove the texture {} wrapper

You make a copy of the macro, and have a parallel macro with a slightly
different name to make a texture rather than a material.   Then your developer
heart will avoid any mRNA induced myocarditis.  :)

Once you declare the texture, then I think you can use that in a final texture
definition with any other modifiers.  It seems to be just a matter of
hierarchies and syntax at this point.

And I can tell you from experience that that "just" can drive you crazy.
