fix #H6285 - speaking vs strangulation

Reading a scroll while blind is permitted if you know its label, but
message is "as you pronounce the words, the scroll vanishes" unless
you are poly'd into a form which can't make sounds, in which case you
"cogitate" rather than "pronouce".  Switch to the cogitate variant if
you are suffering from strangulation.

Casting spells didn't even have the distinction; you could cast them
without regard to speech capability.  Check for that.  Unlike with
scrolls, now you can't cast if you can't speak (or grunt or bark or
whatever) instead of having a variant description of the action, so
this is a bigger change.
