PatR 86cbf9366a PR #906 - loadstone confers 'steadfastness' ...

Pull request by Theyflower:  carrying a loadstone prevents big
monsters from hitting their target for knockback effect, same as
wielding Giantslayer.

The PR code needed fixing (unintended switch from 'otmp' to 'obj')
so I didn't use the commeit.  The PR code also required that the
loadstone be blessed which sounds nethackish but would mean that
nobody would ever notice.  Allow carrying any loadstone to prevent
being knocked back.  It will still be a rare accident or uncommon
tactical decision.  (It doesn't happen if the target is flying or
levitating because those checks deliberately come first.)
