'f' for aklys

Adopt a feature mentioned in the xNetHack release announcement.
If you use the fire ('f') command when wielding a throw-and-return
weapon while your quiver is empty and the 'autoquiver' option is
Off, throw the wielded weapon instead of prompting to fill the
quiver.  It will usually return and be re-wielded, so be ready to
fire again.

Implemented from scratch.
