merge new use_menu_glyphs option with menu_objsyms

Browse Source 
The two options are very similar but probably mutually exclusive
except when using look-here and look-into-container (both via ':')
with the default setting for 'sortloot', or with inventory when
'sortpack' has been toggled off.

This removes 'use_menu_glyphs' and changes 'menu_objsyms' from a
boolean to a compound taking six possible values:
| 0: no object symbols in menus,
| 1: append object class symbol to object header lines (same as old
|menu_objsyms boolean),
| 2: include object symbol in menu entry lines for objects (same as
|recently added use_menu_glyphs),
| 3: both 1 and 2,
| 4: display as #2 but only if the menu lacks class header lines,
| 5: if header lines are present, display as #1; if headers are not
|present, then display as #4 (which will implicitly be #2).
Default is #4.

Effectively replaces the options portion of pull request #1406 and
retains the functionality, but not as default for normal menus.

Guidebook.tex is only partially updated.  Someone else will need to
finish that.

\item[\ib{menu\verb+_+objsyms}]
Show object symbols in menu headings in menus where
the object symbols act as menu accelerators (default off).
% [originally menu_objsyms was a boolean]
% Show object symbols in menu headings in menus where
% the object symbols act as menu accelerators (default off).
Inventory and other object menus are normally separated by object class
(weapons, armor, and so forth), with a menu header line at the beginning
of each group.
You can have menus add the display symbol for the class of objects for
each header line.
You can also add the display symbol for the individual item in each menu
entry.
For a tiles map, that would be a small rendition of an object's tile.
For a text map, it is the same character as is used for the object's
class, which would be most useful when there are no headers separating
objects among classes.
