address #H5590 - paranoid_confirm vs lycanthropy
Polymorph control gives the player a chance to accept or reject a form change due to lycanthropy, but if it occurs during combat or movement the player might type 'y' before realizing that the prompt is pending. Provide a paranoid_confirmation setting for 'Were-change' to allow a player to require "yes" instead of 'y' for that. The existing setting 'wand' is renamed to 'wand-break' and now requires at least two letters in the config file options instead of just 1. The spelling of its synonym is changed from 'breakwand' to 'break-wand'; it can be shorted to as few as 2 letters (same as before) but if more than 5 are present, the new dash is required. Both 'wand-break' and 'Were-change' are placed before 'pray' in the 'O' menu for paranoid_confirmation so that all the "yes" vs 'y' settings are grouped together. Bonus fixes: Reverting from were-critter form to human (due to timeout) did not give a player with polymorph control the option of remaining in creature form; now it does. The 'O' command's menu would not show "wand" (now "wand-break") in the current value of paranoid_confirmation. (A post 3.6.0 issue, so no fixes entry included.) The revised Guidebook.mn has been tested; Guidebook.tex has not.
