Add an optional paniclog file, controlled by a new PANICLOG macro that can
be used to log all panic and impossible messages. Helpful when people
forget to send, or didn't see, the message.
This was a tricky one. While the error was ultimately because
he was specifying a non-existant directory in defaults.nh, the
error message lead me to the wrong area until I traced through
with a debugger.
It turns out that an fqn buffer was being re-used before it
was finished being used with the original information in
sys/share/pcunix.c, so the error message listed the
wrong file!
This adds one more buffer and fixes the problem.
Note that it could only affect plaforms with
PREFIXES_IN_USE defined (NOCWD_ASSUMPTIONS
or VAR_PLAYGROUND)
It also alters the WIN32 error message to give them a
hint as to what the problem might be.

Format multiple bad wizkit items a little better. It will scroll off the screen
if there are more than a screen of bad items, but that's probably not too
likely.
This prevents wizkit items that aren't objects from having their names
printed on the screen if they are gold pieces, traps, or similar.
(Note that the only one of those that actually works is gold. For some reason
if you put "a hole" (for instance) in the wizkit, the hole will not get
created, even though it will, even on the stairs, if the wizard wishes for it
in-game.)
- if !GOLDOBJ, putting gold in the WIZKIT would add zerobj to the inventory.
This shows up when you "Da" and get a message like "you drop 0 glorkum 0 0 0"
The recent wizkit change caused the build to
fail on all environments other than unix and vms.

- avoid several buffer overflows
- move use of access() to files.c in new can_read_file() function
- remove extra newlines in raw_print() calls
- get ready for lint, eg sprintf -> Sprintf
- generally make the code look like core code, not Qt code
Ken:
Fix an error in my fix for compression error messages.
No Makefile.src change should be necessary because files.c depends on hack.h,
which "depends" on wintty.h (actually ifdef USE_TRAMPOLI, but the Makefile
doesn't know that).
