Fix for first issue reported in this bug report:

Subject: Two wrong messages

I would like to report two cosmetic issues:

1. "its gaze is reflected by the invisible [pet]'s shield."
Wrong capitalization.

2. The message given when decapicating an ettin {,zombie} with the Vorpal
Blade fails to mention the second head.  This could be pretty tricky to
fix, but, per <Someone>'s suggestion, the easiest explanation would be
to say that the blade's wielder cuts off both heads at once.
The patch would look similar to:
                         *dmgptr = 2 * mdef->mhp + FATAL_DAMAGE_MODIFIER;
>                        if(mdef->data==&mons[PM_ETTIN]
>                          ||mdef->data==&mons[PM_ETTIN_ZOMBIE)
>                                pline("%s goes through both necks of %s at once like butter!",
>                                      wepdesc, mon_nam(mdef));
>                        else
                         pline(behead_msg[rn2(SIZE(behead_msg))],
                               wepdesc, mon_nam(mdef));
                         otmp->dknown = TRUE;
(and the same for youdefend)
