Rebalance crossbows
Again as a result of the ranged weapons rebalance, crossbows needed to change. The analogy here is long blades' to bows' m&f; better return on skill investment & a higher power cap, but rarer. Hand crossbows are added as a starting type, "something like an armour-piercing dagger"; crossbows are upgraded to arbalests (a little worse than a glaive), and a new rare triple crossbow type is added on the top end (a little worse than a bardiche, though with a lower skill cost.) Please note that the triple crossbow historically existed & is extremely verisimilitudinous. Hellfire is now an arbalest, and Sniper is now a triple crossbow (well, a "heavy crossbow", since it has mindelay of 27 instead of 22, and since I didn't want to have to change the sprite). All crossbows have a mindelay of at least 1.0; this is an attempt to differentiate them. Possibly something more ambitious will be attempted in 1.6, but this is a first step.
