fix #K3455 - rocks vs xorns

Implement the suggestion that falling rock traps and rolling boulder
traps be harmless to xorns.  I've extended that to all missiles made
of stone (rocks, gems, boulders, a handful of other things that will
only matter if poly'd hero throws in '<' direction or is hit by stuff
scattered by an explosion).

I excluded ghosts because they would become even harder to kill and
the missile handling would need extra checks to test for blessed objs.
