Expert and skilled detect treasure was changed to behave like
blessed object detection in 3.3.1, but it didn't work as intended.

To address <Someone>'s complaint, make the cluttered
trap detection tty only. Also put in some dead
code that could make it work elsewhere in future
when there is time to test.
Shouldn't gold detection pay attention to my inventory? "You feel
materially poor" sounds extremely odd if I've got 50,000 zorkmids
stuffed in my backpack.

There was an old bug where a wand of secret door detection was identified
even though it didn't find anything.
It was unconfirmed, but I had no trouble confirming it. It happened because
the wand worked on squares that were couldsee() but which (because they weren't
lit) you couldn't actually see. The wand would detect the secret corridor and
then not display it because it was out of sight.
I fixed it to display the corridor, in sight or not (I could have had it not
detect anything, but the wand is fairly weak already.)
This adds <Someone>'s lens patch.
This is probably it for me adding in any more user-contributed patches for
3.3.2 (except maybe coin flipping; does anyone object to it?)
