Orc heroes get an extra food item ("to compensate for generally
inferior equipment") and it could randomly be lembas wafers (or
cram rations), and Ranger heroes always started with cram rations
even when they're orcs. Fixing the latter was simple, but the
normal race-based substitutions weren't applied to randomly
generated items, so the fix for the former required a bit of code
reorganization in ini_inv().
Elf heroes already get lembas instead of cram; do the reverse for
dwarves (although I don't think this case can happen--no role gets
lembas wafers and only orcs and always-human tourists get random
food); give orc heroes tripe instead of either lembas or cram.

Not addressed here.

Most scrolls rely on useup() -> update_inventory(), but charging uses up
the scroll early so that it will be gone from inventory when choosing an
item to charge. It needed an explicit update_inventory() after charging.

tty doesn't support perm_invent, so this might be a win32 issue.
I've made the suggested change, but a better fix would be to turn off
perm_invent as soon as options processing (new game) or options restore
(old game unless/until #1 gets changed) has finished setting things up,
then turn it back on at the end of moveloop()'s prolog when play is
about to start.

Most of the read.c change is reordering prototypes to match the order
of the corresponding functions. I did this when adding a new static
routine, then ended up discarding that routine.
There was a prior report about this but I can't find it; maybe it
didn't go through the web contact form. Anyway, status_hilite
threshold numeric values wouldn't accept a minus sign before the
digits, preventing negative AC values from being tracked.
The 'O' menu's 'list' for MSGTYPE settings showed truncated versions
of really long message strings but didn't show anything except the
hide/stop/norep setting for ordinary length ones. 3.6.0 showed the
latter correctly but suffered buffer overflow for the former; the
fix for that had a typo/thinko in it.

Noticed while testing the fix for the recently reported clairvoyance
bug. I saw a '1' move onto an 'I', then when it moved again the 'I'
reappeared. The remembered unseen monster couldn't be there anymore
if the warned-of monster was able to walk through that spot, so
remove any 'I' when showing a warning (digit) to stop remembering an
unseen monster at the warning spot.
Nobody has ever reported this so fixing it isn't urgent, but fixing
it is trivial so I'm doing it in now (without the clairvoyance fix).
I think this is needed to avoid inevitable questions/confusion.
Having the git hash in the version string of official binaries
is a very good thing, however.
Instead of replacing the check for DRAWBRIDGE_UP with one for
DRAWBRIDGE_DOWN, the correct fix is to check for both because
replacing either one with water breaks the two-square dbridge.

This is really just stumbling over uncleared clutter, not a pit fall.
There was already a way to clear the clutter between adjacent pits.
