[1.12] Custom Nether Village Spawning In Walls

[LogicTechCorp]

I was able to get Villages to spawn in the Nether by copying the original MapGenVillage class and making one adjustment. Everything works fine except for the fact that they have a tendency to spawn in walls. Instead of using World#getTopSolidOrLiquidBlock I created my own modified version. I know this is the reason why the Villages are spawning in walls but I am not sure on how to issue a fix. The only thing I can think of is trying to find a part of the chunk that is mostly air but I am unsure how.

Would using Chunk#getBlockStorageArray be a good way to find the part of the chunk that is mostly filled with Air?
