Changing the quantity to 2 (50:50 chance) when creating a potion of
healing (also 50:50 chance for each attempt) to place inside a supply
chest wasn't updating the potion stack's weight, resulting in the odd
encumbrance behavior that was reported last December.
Taking the stack out of the container doesn't fix the weight but
drinking one of the potions splits the stack of 2 into two stacks
of 1 and does update the weight for both. That gives the hero higher
encumbrance when the formerly weightless one has its proper weight.
Finishing drinking the potion uses it up, removing second potion's
weight again. When below an encumbrance threshold by the weight of
one potion or less, player will see encumbrance increase and then
decrease, with healing message given before both due to sequencing.
Supply chests weren't having their own weight updated when they were
populated, so would behave as if empty if hero carried them around.
Removing something, breaking something by kicking the chest, or adding
something would update its weight to match its contents.
I also noticed a refutation (or should that be rebuttable?) to my own
remarks in this:

| github issue #1180 - humans and murder
|
| Issue reported by Umbire: reviving a human corpse into a human
| monster and then killing it entails murder penalty even when it is
| hostile.
|
| This is probably a non-issue. Human monsters tend to not leave
| human corpses, they leave shopkeeper corpses or sergeant corpses
[...]
Dead fake hero corpses placed at trap locations on early levels are
leaving plain human|dwarf|elf|gnome|orc corpses rather than fake
player monster ones (which are always human but resurrect as player
monsters rather than as plain humans), so there are more plain human
corpses now than there were in 3.6.x or early to-be-3.7. I've added
a comment about the situation.
