Fixes#177
The monst struct has 'mintrinsics' field which attempts to handle
both mon->data->mresists and extrinsics supplied by worn armor, but
polymorph/shape-change was clobbering the extrinsics side of things.
Potentially fixing that by changing newcham() to use set_mon_data(...,1)
instead of (...,0) solved that but exposed two other bugs. Intrinsics
from the old form carried over to the new form along with extrinsics
from worn armor, and update_mon_intrinsics() for armor being destroyed
or dropped only worked as intended if the armor->owornmask was cleared
beforehand--some places were clearing it after, so extrinsics from worn
gear could persist even after that gear was gone.
So, fixing the set_mon_data() call in newcham() was a no go. This
fixes update_mon_intrinsics() and adopts the suggested code from
github pull request #177 to have mon->mintrinsics only handle worn
gear instead of trying to overload innate intrinsics with that. This
is a superset of that; the flag argument to set_mon_data() is gone
and mon->mintrinsics has been renamed mon->mextrinsics. (The routine
update_mon_intrinsics() ought to be renamed too, but I didn't do that.)
Fixes#170
Monsters never throw athames or scalpels but some fake player monsters
on the Astral Plane are given those. Since they're stackable the
quantity usually gets boosted but there's no point in having more than
one if they won't be thrown.
This could have been fixed by letting monsters throw those two items,
but I prevented the quantity from being boosted instead.
If an mplayer Valkyrie on the Astral Plane is given a war hammer,
give her gauntlets of power instead of random gloves since that will
either be Mjollnir or a very wimpy endgame weapon. (Maybe someday
mplayer Valkyrie's will be able to throw Mjollnir; their chance of
having it on the Astral Plane is moderately high if it hasn't already
been created prior to arriving there.)
I also gave monsters wearing gauntlets of power a 3..6 damage bonus
for hand-to-hand. While making that change, I noticed that monsters
wielding a scalpel or tsurugi wouldn't split puddings, unlike the
hero (a post-3.6.0 change), so fix that.
Make 'zeromonst' global instead of local to makemon.c. Its address
isn't used as a special value like &zeroobj, but it is useful to
have available for initializing various pseudo-monsters.

I'll push a formatting guide at some point. There may still be
outstanding changes, but please feel free to resolve those as you arrive
a them.
To the best of my knowledge, there is no changes to the actual code
content, but the formatter does have the occasional bug. If you run into
an issue, please fix it!
Make all stackable weapons capable of multi-shot volleys when thrown.
Affects knives, spears & javelins, and boomerangs; requires advanced skill
assignment (skilled: 1-2 missiles per throw, expert: 1-3 missiles) or
role-specific bonus (ranger class's general +1 bonus is the only one that
applies to any of these weapon types). For monsters, prince-caste get 1-3
missiles and lord-caste get 1-2, as before, with fake player monsters now
also getting 1-2; those counts apply to all stackable weapons regardless
of whether the species or role ordinarily uses whatever is being thrown.
Related changes: monks now get a role-based +1 count for shuriken,
throwing 1-2 instead of just one (they're only allowed to achieve basic
skill so won't reach any higher volley count). Monster monks and ninjas
get that too; ninjas now get the same for darts and they're guaranteed
weapons in starting inventory. Also, fake player rogues now sometimes
get orcish daggers instead of short sword, providing a decent chance to
occasionally have Grimtooth be randomly generated on the Astral level.
Potentially controversial: wizards can still become expert in dagger
skill and receive the to-hit and damage bonuses for that when throwing as
well as when wielding, but the number of missiles for them has now been
reduced to 1-2 (in other words, going from skilled to expert no longer
improves the max count for the volley amount for wizard role). They're
supposed to be spellcasters; being able to throw up to three +7 daggers
at a pop was a big temptation for resorting to brute force, particularly
since they'll already want highest dagger skill for wielding Magicbane.
To do: throwing multiple boomerangs either needs to behave as if
they're all in flight before the first returns, or else the volley needs
to be cut short if one comes back and isn't successfully caught. The
latter is a lot easier to do but the former fits better with what multi-
shot volley is supposed to represent. Another alternative is to change
them to no longer be stackable, then this sequencing issue goes away.
To do too: make worm teeth and crysknives become stackable like the
other knife-skill weapons.
move oattached and oname and other things that vary
the size of the obj structure into a separate
non-adjacent oextra structure, similar to what has
already been done for mextra. The obj structure
itself becomes a fixed size.
New macros:
#define ONAME(o) ((o)->oextra->oname)
#define OMID(o) ((o)->oextra->omid)
#define OMONST(o) ((o)->oextra->omonst)
#define OLONG(o) ((o)->oextra->olong)
#define OMAILCMD(o) ((o)->oextra->omailcmd)
#define has_oname(o) ((o)->oextra && ONAME(o))
#define has_omid(o) ((o)->oextra && OMID(o))
#define has_omonst(o) ((o)->oextra && OMONST(o))
#define has_olong(o) ((o)->oextra && OLONG(o))
#define has_omailcmd(o) ((o)->oextra && OMAILCMD(o))
changed macros:
has_name(mon) becomes has_mname(mon) to correspond.
The CVS repository was tagged with
NETHACK_PRE_OEXTRA
before commiting these, and
tagged with
NETHACK_POST_OEXTRA
immediately after. The diff
between those two tags is this oextra patch.
The associated mail daemon changes to use an oextra
structure instead of a hidden command located in the
name after the terminating NUL, have not been tried
or tested.
Note: The CVS repository was tagged with NETHACK_PRE_MEXTRA
prior to application of this patch to allow easy withdrawal if necessary.
Adds a new mextra structure type that has a set
of pointers to various types of monster structures
including:
mname, egd, epri, eshk, emin, edog
Replaces the mextra bits in the monst structure
with a single pointer called mtmp->mextra of type
(struct mextra *).
The pointer can be null if there are no additional
structures attached. The mextra structure is not
adjacent to the monst structure.
Reduces the in-memory footprint of the monst that
has no other structures attached, at the cost
of adding 6 extra long ints per monster to
the save file
The new mextra structure has the mextra fields
independent of each other, not overlapping as was
the case with previous NetHack versions.
This patch doesn't do anything to capitalize on
that difference however.
Consolidates vault.h, epri.h, eshk.h, emin.h and edog.h
into mextra.h
Adds a macro for checking for whether a monster has
a name:
has_name(monst)
This fixes the magic trap panic
expels() -> spoteffects() -> dotrap() ->
domagictrap() -> tamedog()
because the monst no longer varies in size so no
replacement is required.

[confirmed: moveloop -> deferred_goto -> goto_level ->
losedogs -> mon_arrive -> rloc -> impossible]
This patch:
- causes rloc() to return TRUE if successful,
or FALSE if it wasn't.
- adds code to mon_arrive() in dog.c to deal with
the failed rloc()
- allows the x,y parameters to mkcorpstat() to
be 0,0 in order to trigger random placement of the
corpse on the level
- if you define DEBUG_MIGRATING_MONS when you build cmd.c
then you'll have a debug-mode command #migratemons to
store the number of random monsters that you specify
on the migrating monsters chain.

Applying at the water location next to you was easy. But
applying it at your own location (triggering BY_YOU) could
end up placing the figurine at the far side of the level if
there was lots of water.
Correcting that required the ability to pass a flag from
make_familiar to makemon() telling it to not rule out
water locations as good positions. The flag had to
be passed on down to goodpos() and enexto().
The bulk of this patch is just adding an additional
argument to goodpos() in all of the callers.
