Add various long-standing skeleton changes, to compensate for their

stairs-related weakness:

* For consistency, skeletons created by vampire draining now have the 
normal duration of 200, instead of 90.  To compensate for this, they are 
left 25% of the time imstead of 75%.

* Skeletons can now be left after butchering corpses, with the same 
chance of 25%, so that vampires don't have an exclusive advantage.

* Monsters that eat corpses (and effectively butcher them) can leave 
skeletons from doing so, with the same chance of 25%.
